Couldn't load pickup availability
** This set (with Shaving Brush) comes in a gift box, so it makes the perfect gift. (Bowl shown in gift box is an example of blue & bronze bowl). **
A large hand thrown shaving bowl or Suribachi, designed to be held securely in the hand from the base, it has a lather building centre of rough unglazed ceramic. Finished in a grey/green, with a rough textured center, which helps the bristles of the shaving brush whip up the soap to a good lather and quickly. This bowl has been high fired (1200 degrees Celsius) so it is fully vitrified and waterproof. The base of the bowl is designed to fit snugly in your hand, giving you a firm non slip grip whilst you swirl your brush.
This shaving bowl is made from stoneware clay then glazed inside (except the texture ring in the center) in a lovely grey/green glaze which “breaks” a warm brown over the rim.
** First six images show actual item available. All items will be similar but not identical, due to the nature of handmade.
Wheel-thrown with love in my cosy Wiltshire (UK) studio. Made from stoneware clay and glazed in food safe glazes. Glazes are brushed on in several layers to create the depth of colour you see. Twice fired upto 1200°C in my electric kiln.
Dishwasher, microwave, oven safe, however to retain its ravishing good looks I recommend washing by hand!
