Product Overview
Captain's Choice OCEANIC Copper Lather Bowl is an oversized, handmade copper shaving bowl designed to provide substantially more lathering room than the brand's typical copper bowl. Constructed from thick gauge copper, OCEANIC weighs approximately one pound and measures 6 1/4 inches in diameter by 1 3/4 inches deep.
The larger dimensions make OCEANIC particularly useful for wet shavers who prefer larger shaving brushes or simply want more room to build and work a lather. For comparison, a typical Captain's Choice copper lather bowl measures approximately 4 1/2 inches in diameter by 1 1/2 inches deep. According to Captain's Choice, OCEANIC provides more than twice the volume.
Please Note: This listing is for the larger OCEANIC bowl. A typical Captain's Choice copper lather bowl may be shown in the product photographs for size comparison only.
Quick Take
OCEANIC is a large, one pound handmade copper lather bowl with a 6 1/4 inch diameter, hammered interior, bottom ridges, contoured sides, and a brass thumb rest. Its generous capacity provides extra working room for building lather, especially when using a larger shaving brush.
Design & Construction
Each OCEANIC bowl begins as a sheet of thick gauge copper and is crafted individually by an artisan to Captain's Choice specifications. A hammered finish is applied to the copper, while ridges are impressed into the bottom of the bowl to assist with the lathering process.
The sides are formed into a contoured profile designed to help contain the lather while reducing contact between the shaving brush and the sides of the bowl. A slightly indented brass thumb rest is attached to the exterior to provide a secure grip during use. The upper edge is finished and the Captain's Choice name is stamped into the bottom.
Lathering Capacity
At approximately 6 1/4 inches in diameter and 1 3/4 inches deep, OCEANIC provides considerably more working space than Captain's Choice's typical 4 1/2 inch by 1 1/2 inch copper lather bowl. Captain's Choice states that OCEANIC offers more than twice the volume of its typical copper bowl.
The additional space allows a shaving brush to move more freely while incorporating water and air into shaving soap or cream, making the larger bowl especially useful when working with a large shaving brush.
Best For
Captain's Choice OCEANIC is particularly well suited to traditional wet shavers who prefer a large lathering surface, use larger shaving brushes, or simply want more room for building and hydrating lather. It is also a strong choice for those who appreciate handmade copper shaving accessories and the individual character that develops from artisan craftsmanship.
Handcrafted Character
OCEANIC is made one bowl at a time, so slight differences between individual pieces are expected. Natural imperfections in the copper and variations created during the crafting process mean that no two bowls will be exactly alike.
These variations are part of the character of a handmade copper product rather than defects. The classic vintage finish, hammered surface, contoured profile, and contrasting brass thumb rest give each OCEANIC bowl its own individual appearance.
A Word from the Manufacturer
Captain's Choice designed OCEANIC for wet shavers wanting significantly more room than a typical copper lather bowl provides. The bowl's larger dimensions accommodate larger shaving brushes while its hammered finish, bottom ridges, contoured sides, and thumb rest are incorporated to support the lathering process and provide a secure grip.
Each bowl is created individually by an artisan to Captain's Choice specifications, beginning with a sheet of copper and progressing through forming, hammering, detailing, and finishing. Natural variations in the copper and individual craftsmanship ensure that every finished OCEANIC bowl is unique.
Directions for Use
Add shaving soap or cream to the bowl and work it with a damp shaving brush. Gradually add water as needed while building the lather until the desired consistency is achieved. After shaving, rinse the bowl thoroughly and wipe it dry.
