I just bought this molcajete and did one round of curing and I noticed a visible line running inside the bowl and down one of the legs (last two photos are marked in red).

It feels solid and I don’t see any glue, but I’m worried it might be a crack or a repaired break.

Does this look like a natural fissure in lava stone, or something I should return it?

  1. Put water on it, and see how it holds. a molcajete that is really really bubbly can drip water after a while, we are talking hours, the bubbles may connect, if its a crack it will leak fast.

    Seems more outer surfaced, it would of broken when you were curing it
