Constructed from thick gauge copper, OCEANIC weighs approximately one pound and measures 6 1\/4 inches in diameter by 1 3\/4 inches deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuick Take\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOCEANIC 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLathering Capacity\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBest For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCaptain'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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHandcrafted Character\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOCEANIC 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Word from the Manufacturer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCaptain'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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDirections for Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAdd 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Captain's Choice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct:\u003c\/strong\u003e OCEANIC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Copper Shaving Lather Bowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thick gauge copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThumb Rest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 6 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDepth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 1 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Classic vintage finish with hammered detailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterior:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ridges impressed into the bottom to assist with lathering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Individually handcrafted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e More than twice the volume of Captain's Choice's typical copper lather bowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHand wash only.
