Martin de Candre - the bowl version?

I asked if they did refills.

I'll probably go for the bowl - I'll find another use for it when the soap has gone.

For my 2p worth, I'd rather have one of the Limited edition Glass bowl's with metal domes adorned with an animal a bit further down.

Very unusual and classy (and cheaper than the wooden bowl).

Regards

To those that have the bowl how has it held up?

To be honest have only used it in the bathroom to display the Brush in, the brush though I use regularly with no ill effect.

Is mine there you go and has pride of place in my Bathroom. Made from a Scottish bowling ball the brush handle and bowl, as Andy said Lignum Vitae.

This is EXTREMELY sexy. I know its rude to ask, and its a bespoke piece, but can anyone give me an idea of how much something similar to this might cost? A ball park guesstimate is fine - I dont want to offend anyone!

I had one of their special edition glass bowl types which came with a glass tray. One day I noticed a chip had appeared no one of the corners of the bowl. No idea how it happened and strangely no one else does ! It wasn't much but sharp enough to give a nasty nip. So I got a ramekin and scooped out all of the MdC and it is fairly easy to push in to another bowl.

I never did buy another M de C. It's usually Palmolive or Arko now. How times change!

I also combined both my MdC from the wooden bowl AND also the glass butter dish version into one stoneware bowl. I see this is as a plus as seeing this soap doesn't need a lid, you are free to store it in any container that you so wish.
