Black Soap Dish Petrified Wood

• The upper surface is smoothly polished, so soap rests in a shallow, rounded dimple rather than on a flat slab.
• The outer rim is left rough and organic, with uneven edges that echo the original wood form.
• The colouring is naturally varied, with warm sandy browns and a dark charcoal-toned section visible in the piece shown.
• Its simple shape works well beside natural soap, stone basins, linen towels and pared-back bathroom shelves.
• Each piece will vary in colour and pattern, as petrified wood does not form in identical repeats.

Petrified wood is ancient wood that has mineralised over time, keeping traces of grain and growth while becoming stone-like in feel. That gives this piece its unusual balance: it reads as earthy and organic, yet feels solid, smooth and lasting in the hand.

This piece is made by hand in Indonesia from petrified wood. The contrast between the polished upper surface and the raw edge is part of its character, giving a functional bathroom object the presence of a small natural sculpture.

Place the soap bar in the central dimple after use, then let the surface dry naturally between washes. Rinse away soap residue when needed and wipe with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh bathroom cleaners, as they can dull the polished surface and catch in the raw edges.
