These Solid Stainless Steel bowls are a great unique gift, that are hand forged one at a time; no two exactly the same. This traditional shaving lathering bowl's sloping sides and flat bottom allows the bowl to sits firmly in the hand, while being able to feel the forged craftsmanship in the hand. The blacksmith forged bowl holds approximately 9 ounces. and absolutely will not break when dropped
For a warm and inviting lather, soak the bowl in hot water while preparing your face and prior to working up a shaving lather. Keeping the bowl temperature control is as easy as setting your bowl in the sink with the hot water until the desired temperature. The straight razor and brush pictured is not included, but is pictured for a reference. Being non-magnetic these bowls are safe for your electronic devices. The stainless steel handmade feel is developed though the forging process.
These particular bowls I make are hand forged from 304 stainless steel in a process where they are, hand stamped (if customization is wanted), then reaching a temperature near 1750 degrees Fahrenheit, shaped by hand, brushed, smoothed and waxed. Hand stamped finishes are added in the beginning (if personalization is chosen).
Bowl Specifications: 5.25" wide x 1.25" deep" 3/16" thick and weighs approximately 1.5 Lb. Each bowl maybe a little different in size due to being hand forged.
Materials: 304 Solid Stainless Steel (will not rust).
