    I found this very famous and well known mortar made in the netherlands in 1590 that is the original that is. with the tekst: "Leefte Verwint Al Dinck". There are alot of modern copies of this one. And i wondered if mine has real age and is from the period??It measures 10 cm wide and 9,3 cm high and weighs 1138 grams. 10.jpg 11.jpg 12.jpg
