Bronze Grecian style Mortar and Pestle.
Both faces say "Honoring Pharmacy Fraternities". Above are fraternities founded in 1879, 1883, 1913, 1919, again 1919, and 1921. Below is the phrase "Secundum Artem" repeated on both faces. the bottom is decorated with classical hellenistic wave designs. There are small urn-style handles which curl inwards. The top of the Pestle is shaped like a corinthian style pillar, and on the bottom is the word "Coricidin". Both sides are nearly identical, with the exception of the dates above.Collection
