This classic enamel soap dish comes in two pieces: the holed upper section keeps soap dry, while the base catches drips and facilitates cleaning. It's crafted here in Eau De Nil, literally meaning “water of the Nile” - a light-greenish hue, more saturated than celadon, less grey than sage, from their archival BRITISH COLOUR STANDARD Dictionary.
The item is gift-boxed in a neat, recyclable kraft card box.
Traditionally made Enamelware is incredibly durable, with the colourful ceramic -style 'glazed' coating fired onto the metal piece.
The soap dish measures 13.5 cm x 10.5 cm x 2.5 cm and weighs 253g.
To care for it, try to avoid chipping, do not use abrasive pads/cleaners, and do not place in a microwave or freezer.
It's domestic dishwasher safe.
Note: Enamelware Production
These are handmade items, so slight variations can occur with painted edges etc. When the colour pigment is fired on, sometimes tiny black dots can appear on the item surface; these dots are from the metal wires used to hang the items
in the kiln whilst being fired, oxidising. This is an unavoidable part of the manufacturing process and is more noticeable on lighter colours than darker ones, and has always been a part of the alchemy of metal and pigment that is the making
of enamelwares.
