Lovely looking bowls for sure.My approach would be for a ceramic one (as it is going to retain better the heat from hot water, even better a scuttle type if you really want to keep the lather nice and warm), with some sort of ridges (circular, concentric better but really any type).
A nice example would be the work of Elizabeth Occhi (an italian artisan which makes incredible bowls and scuttles all by hand, truly stunning work, you can check her work here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/PachamamaBarberShop
Only downside obviously is that if you happen to drop them, sayonara bowl!
Wood one from GFS is a good compromise I guess, while metal ones are the most resistant (you never gonna break one) but they disperse heat very quickly.
oh gosh, never really thought of that possibility, like the bowl landed in the sink and made a mess?Lovely looking bowls for sure.
But you are correct if you drop it then it’s a goner,
Although my concern is actually cracking my sink which iv done before
Yes i dropped one years ago on my sink and cracked the sink.oh gosh, never really thought of that possibility, like the bowl landed in the sink and made a mess?
There are also new types coming out in bio-plastic (3d printing) which are very sturdy and light at the same time.
An italian FB shaving group has made some and they looks amazing (gives a ceramic effect but light and basically indestructible):
I’ve loved the look of these for a while but they are very expensive, for what is essentially a lather container/builder. It’s the area of my shave den I have changed the least so far as I love my 3-D bowl and the HC&C. It doesn’t affect the quality of my shave enough to warrant a huge variety.Pereira Shavery Unbreakable Shaving Bowl Large - Etsy UK
