Easily done, today!

Works for me.
I tried something very similar, sans the ridges, and was stunned that it actually didn’t work. I know you can whip up a lather in smooth ceramic and metal bowl, but this polymer wasn’t having it without something to serve as an agitation feature.
Looks amazing!I have been on a quest to find something unique. Different from everything.
Found this vintage old bowl - Agate Slag glass, super thick.
Couldn't pass it up. Just ordered it.
What is the one in the upper right hand corner? Looks nice!All that would fit on the counter.
I use a collapsible silicone dog feeder bowl--the small one with the "slow feeder" nubs on the bottom. In winter, I sometimes dust off a Becker scuttle.
Past bowls have included a Vikings Blade s/s bowl, a hammered copper Turkish bowl and a ceramic cereal bowl.
So far, the winner is the two for $7 dog bowl, though I may splurge on a heavy Captain's Choice copper bowl once they are back in stock. Makes no sense, I know, but this is shaving we're talking about.

For me, my salsa bowl works well with soap pucks. Pic is this morning's shave.

This silver bowl from the 1920:s belonged to my grand mother’s uncle. I now use it as a shaving bowl.
If it is the seller I saw on ebay from japan he is gone until shipping opens up again. He has a jnat I want just for kitchen knives big freaking stone for cheap. I seriously doubt it will work for razors but should give a nice finish to my japanese knives.
Very nice family heirloom to use and treasure.
the one in the middle looks awesome. What is it?

Imho it is a tad to agressive profile and the swirls and knobs you see in other bowls is just smarter.
They should have made it dimpled or ridged

I got this ceramic bowl from a guy named Doug Smith Pottery on Etsy, for $24. I like it because of the concave lip which keeps the lather from spilling over. I can whip the brush around like nobody's business without spilling a drop. At first there was a bit of annoying clinking from the brush against the side, but I learned to hold the bowl at an angle and the brush halfway down the handle and can now lather up a storm with nary a clink.
I have way too many lather bowls. Here are 4 of my favorites. They are: back left Pereira's, back right Timeless, front right Parker, front left Fine.
