Just got this in today. Commissioned from Pottersong off of Etsy.
I've been looking for the perfect shaving soap dish. Started with a coffee cup, but it was way too tall and narrow, leading to clanking brushes and poor loading. Then I got an Old Spice mug, which was an improvement, but still too tall and narrow. I picked up some ramekins, which were shallow enough, but they were too wide or too narrow and I wanted a handle.
So I found Pottersong and asked for a custom dish, 3.5" wide and 1.5" deep, with a handle. About a month later, it was ready.
It's really well made. Nice matte black finish. A little swirl pattern at the bottom. There's a great subtle bulge and lip that should help keep proto lather in. Nice and lightweight too.
Amazingly, it was only $22. Really a great deal.
First soap, I decided to grate some Arlington and press it in. The width is perfect, not too wide or narrow. The little bulge and lip fits a swirling brush nicely. And the wide base sits great on my wire rack shelf.
