Hi all
I collect Australian studio pottery and have done for a few years before I started wetshaving. As a result I have a large amount of ceramic wine goblets which were all the rage in the 70s and early 80s but have now disappeared from cool households altogether, This means they are VERY cheap at opshops ($2 - $3.50 on a bad day) despite being well made, bespoke pieces of art. What's more - they're perfect brush soakers! They take hot water, are heavy and are usually just the right size to keep the handle dry.
You can see my badger brush uses a Hof Pottery goblet. It's heavy, perfectly matches my brush size, fits in with shaving bowl that is now too large to use as a brush soaker... and it cost $2.
