It is very nice, although a little small. The handle is removable... and fits into the bowl. So traveling should be possible. Really nice.
They also have a beautiful limited edition olive wood bowl that looks lovely. Not with a removable handle like this one, but still beautiful.

It is a beautiful product, and actually looks useful. I checked it out on their web site-it is sold out. Ha!
Good thing. I might have bought it.

There is a manufacturer in Bavaria making awesome shaving brushes. I had the luck to have him make for me two custom made unique brushes.
The manufacturer is Rasurkult.
The brushes:
I named the first Kokomo as it reminds me of this Beach Boys Song with Sand dunes and Ocean.
It has a hybrid handle out of resin and horse chestnut wood. It has a 26mm 2-Band SHD Manchurian Badger Knot in FAN Shape
The second I named Purple Rain, as it just fits to the Prince song.
It has a hybrid handle out of resin and maple wood. It has a 27mm 2-Band SHD High Mountain White Badger Knot in Chubby Shape, it’s 5mm shorter in the loft height.

Thank you very much. They are fantastic. The feel of the knot on the skin is incredible. They lather up quickly and have a awesome quality. The first lather was without specifically looking out for the soap loading and water management, but they made both a really good lather even as it is.
Both are near perfection in many ways with different properties. I love the variety!
