Questions about the product Antique Stone Hand Mill – Historical Replica

What material is the replica of the antique hand mill made of, and is the flour ground with it suitable for consumption?

The replica of the antique hand mill is made of natural sandstone and features an iron pin for central centering and a wooden handle. The flour produced is not suitable for consumption, as it is a historical artifact that may result in some stone abrasion, and the materials used are not food-grade certified.
What is the weight of the replica of the antique hand mill and how is the grinding process technically implemented by the wooden handle and the iron pin?

The replica of the antique hand mill weighs approximately 15 kg. Technically, the grinding process is achieved by placing the upper millstone onto an iron pin protruding from the basestone, which serves as an axle; the millstone is then set in motion by hand using a wooden handle attached to the side or top to grind the material between it and the millstone.
What is the diameter of the millstones in this historical replica, and is the hand mill delivered fully assembled for use in museum education?

Which historical periods or areas of application are recommended for this stone hand mill, and how are the millstones cleaned after use?

This antique hand mill is recommended for historical reenactments of Roman antiquity (Imperial period), the Iron Age, and the Middle Ages.
