Which style of mortar & pestle is for me?

Our Classic styled Mortar & Pestle features a smooth rim for easy cleanup. The Rustic version is the moody cousin of the Classic style, with a live edge around the rim. The edges of the Rustic Mortar & Pestles can be quite rugged with bark, so choose this option if you want a earthy, organic feel.
