I've been wet-shaving for nearly two years, now, and using straight razors for one year and a half.
So far I have enjoyed my Ikea bamboo bowl for lathering, that I got for less than 5 €, but now I feel I'm ready for the next step, and I'd like a bit of advice: should I get a turkish copper bowl, the hammered kind, or a scuttle?
And the scuttle should be a ceramic one like the PAA Crown King (black, I guess), or the polypropylene shatterproof travel version?
Nothing too fancy, I just have to replace my wooden bowl and I like shatterproof things. The hot lather in winter / cool lather in summer tickles my fancy, but I don't sneeze at less-than-10€ turkish bowls, either.
TL;DR
Should I get:
Thanks.

TL;DR
Should I get:
- a turkish bowl, hammered copper (outside) and tin (inside): around 8 - 10 €, shipped;
- a PAA Crown King ceramic scuttle: I guess 40 €, shipping to Italy included;
- a PAA shatterproof scuttle: in the 35 € area, shipping included;
- another brand or model of scuttle, still in the 30 - 40 € budget zone.
Thanks.
