Description

This shaving scuttle was hand thrown on my potters wheel using white stoneware clay and glazed in a satin speckled brown glaze.

Fill the bottom reservoir with hot water and use the top bowl to whip up a thick warm lather with your favourite shaving soap ready for the perfect shave. The top lather bowl is permanently attached to the cup to further retain the heat and to stop it falling off whilst shaving. The shaving cup has slight groves around the sides to help lather production.

Approx. Width (excluding handle): 145mm
Height: 80mm

How It’s Made

By Hand.

All of my work is handmade, predominetly on a potter’s wheel. Once the clay has been prapared the ball is transfered onto the wheel where the form is pulled. Once made, the peice is left to dry slightly overnight to a leather hard consistency before hopping right back onto the wheel to be trimmed with turning tools to remove any excess clay and refine the shape.

Once the clay has fully dried out after a week or two it goes into the kiln for the first firing – the bisque – where it will be slowly heated to 1030°c. The piece is then ready to glaze. Glaze is a slurry of different clays, chemicals and metal oxides which melt in the second kiln firing to create a glass-like surface, the metal oxides creating the colours. During this final firing the kiln will reach 1220°c.
