check this out http://www.fantes.com/mortar_pestle.htm
this place has OODLES of items that can be used as mixing bowls... i got the idea from a member that was using a mortar as a mixing bowl... so i searched one out... found this place... and they have PLENTY of items to choose from... many of which are VERY fairly priced... check out the marble mortar and pestle set... VERY cheap... and nice looking probably weighs a ton too!
edited to add: also, check this out http://www.fantes.com/images/121720warmers.jpg anyone ever thought of using one of these to warm their lather? stick a steel bowl ontop, a cheap fondue gel warmer at the bottom, and voiala! lol might be TOO hot though... not sure... never actually used one of those, but i do know typically, to keep food warm enough to eat at hotels, they typically have 3 or so burning below... so, i would assume 1 wouldnt create a whole lot of heat... could be wrong though
