I had originally posted this to Reddit but the mods removed it and suggested I take it to a rock and minerals subreddit.... which was infuriating. Anyways, this came in a collection of other Mexican arts and pottery. I have not found anything exactly like it online. I actually have a pair of them. I thought it might be for tortillas but it seems small. It's abou 4" across. Any help is appreciated.
Looks like the bottom half of a press. You heated up you put something heavy on top and it will make small tortillas, good for street hand tacos
yup. suitable for any kind of open flame, retains heat and keeps on cooking once you warm it up.
