Captain's Choice - Commander - Brass Lather Bowl

Constructed out of 100% solid brass and sporting a distinctive copper thumb rest, Commander has a true sense of heritage. It has the hammered accents that you see and comes with a shiny and high gloss finish throughout. This special offering is not available from any of our domestic retailers, only directly from Captain’s Choice.

Created by an artisan to our specifications these lather bowls are created one at a time. Each begins as a sheet of brass. Following application of the hammered finish, ridges are impressed into the bottom to help expedite the lathering process. The sides are fashioned to achieve a stunning contoured profile that is ideal for containing the lather.  The convenient thumb rest is affixed to the exterior and is slightly indented for a secure grip. Lastly, the company name is stamped into the bottom. 

The beauty of this handmade item is that each one will differ slightly.  The natural imperfections in the brass along with the individual craftsmanship of each bowl ensure that no two will be exactly the same. They measure approximately 4 1/2" wide and 1 1/2" deep and will appear similar to the one that is pictured.

Care instructions: Hand wash only -- do not place in dishwasher. After each use simply rinse off and wipe dry.

In time, a patina will naturally develop on our shiny lather bowls. If you prefer to maintain the shiny finish here is a simple solution: As needed, rub the finish with straight white vinegar and a paper towel. Or, if you wish, the local hardware store will have products to maintain the finish.
