Captain's Choice Copper Lather Bowl Standard

Product Overview

Captain's Choice Copper Lather Bowl Standard is a handcrafted shaving bowl that combines the vintage look of copper with a durable, unbreakable design. The Standard version weighs approximately six ounces, features an appealing rolled edge around the lip, and is coated with a protective lacquer for durability and long life.

Handcrafted one at a time by an artisan to Captain's Choice specifications, each bowl begins as a sheet of copper before receiving its hammered finish and distinctive contoured shape.

Quick Take

A handmade copper lather bowl with a vintage appearance and functional wet shaving design. The Standard version combines a protective lacquer, hammered finish, bottom lathering ridges, contoured sides, rolled lip, and indented thumb rest in a compact six-ounce bowl.

Handcrafted Copper Construction

Each Captain's Choice Copper Lather Bowl is made individually by an artisan. The process begins with a sheet of copper, which receives a hammered finish before being placed over a mold and shaped into the finished bowl.

Ridges are impressed into the bottom to help expedite the lathering process. The sides are then fashioned into a contoured profile designed to contain the developing lather while helping prevent the shaving brush from knocking against the sides of the bowl.

Protective Lacquer Finish

The Standard Copper Lather Bowl is coated with a protective lacquer for durability and long life. This finish distinguishes the Standard version while preserving the eye-catching vintage character of the handcrafted copper bowl.
