Baudelaire Soap Dish

Ash is a durable, dense hardwood, and this dish is designed to withstand a bathroom or kitchen environment. Because it elevates the soap, it allows air to circulate underneath, which helps the wood dry out between uses and prevents the waterlogging that typically causes warping.

While the ash is durable on its own, you can occasionally treat it with a food-safe mineral oil or beeswax to maintain the wood's luster and water resistance. If it gets soap buildup, simply rinse it under warm water and let it air dry completely.

At 6 by 4 inches, this dish is sized to accommodate most standard and oversized artisanal soap bars comfortably. Its flat, open design ensures that even larger bars have a stable, elevated surface.

The wood features a natural, open-grain texture that is coarse enough to provide grip for your soap, but it is finished smoothly to the touch. It won't snag or scratch your countertops.

This dish is designed specifically for countertop use. It does not have adhesive backing or mounting hardware, so it is best suited for flat, stable surfaces like a vanity, sink ledge, or bathtub rim.
