Handmade Oak Soap Dish 🧼🌿
Each of these soap dishes is crafted from a solid piece of American Oak, sanded smooth and finished with Hampshire Sheen Danish Oil. Every piece is cut, shaped, sanded and finished here in Tralee, Co. Kerry. 🇮🇪
 
The drainage channels are designed to let water run off freely so your soap dries faster and lasts longer. 💧

They’re ideal for flat bars of soap, but if you’re using a round bar, simply press the wet soap gently into the wood — it will settle in place and grip the shape perfectly. 👍
 
The adhesive rubber feet (included in the price) lift the dish off your counter, helping it dry properly and preventing the wood from sitting in pooled water.
 
Because wood is a natural material, each dish has its own unique grain pattern and colour variations. No two are ever the same. 🌳
 
These Oak versions are the same design as my other soap dishes, just made slightly thicker at 22mm instead of 19mm. They were originally cut for a different product line, and I adapted the design to make them perfect as soap holders — a tricky but satisfying result. ✨

Please note: As a natural wooden product, the dish may darken or develop marks over time depending on the soap used. Some soaps contain oils, dyes or botanical ingredients that can stain wood. This is a normal part of using a natural material. The dish is designed to function well, allowing soap to dry between uses, rather than to stay looking unused.
