Mortar and Pestle

This mortar is adorned with two friezes. The top one consists of stylized flowers, while the bottom one features flowers, foliage motifs, and birds with spread wings. Inscribed in Latin along the top edge is: ‘By the grace of God, Ouderogge made this in 1637.’ The mortar was cast by either Cornelis or his brother Dirk. They also made bells and cannons.
