    Default Really Nice Shaving Bowls. Really Nice Price

    Been using a couple bowls I picked up last winter at a Craft Show. Very attractive hand thrown multi-use pottery bowls I got for about $10 (PS..art shows and the like are great spots to find additions for your soap collections).

    Last week I found myself at a local Wal-Mart. Here I see an exceptionally fine looking display of handmade bowls in two sizes....one fits a small soap puck perfectly; the other is a tad larger, great for lathering up the cream of your choice. $6.00 for the pair.

    This weekend...World Market. Handmade pottery rice bowls. Again, PERFECT size for a small puck..$2.49. Very attractive piece here too.

    I'm suggesting should any of you all out there feel like putting together a small collection of nicely made shave bowls and don't feel like spending $40, $50, $60 and up for one....check out the local discount venues. You may be very pleasantly surprised.

    I looked at Walmarttius and didn't see anything worth using. I went to a local Asian market and all they had were cheap and ugly plastic ones that didn't really suit me. Haven't been to an art show yet.

    Whenever I roll to an antique store I always look at their mugs/glasses/bowls/etc. looking for similar thing, shaving bowls on the cheap heh. So far I have found zero. I have an Old Spice mug from the BST (which I want more of heh) and I have an EJ chrome, metallic bowl that works, but I don't really like.

    I will second the request for pics too ;) .

    I found some 'Pearsons of Chesterfield' small oven dish with lid. Fits my MWF perfectly, with that greyish old-skoool look.
