Handmade Ash Soap Dish – Natural Irish Craft 🧼🌿
Each of these soap dishes is crafted from a solid piece of American Ash, sanded smooth and finished with Hampshire Sheen Danish Oil. Every dish 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. 💧

These dishes are ideal for flat bars of soap, but if you use round soap, you can simply press the wet bar gently into the wood — it will settle into place and stay put. 👍
 
The adhesive rubber feet (included in the price) lift the dish off the counter, helping it dry properly while preventing the wood from sitting in pooled water.
 
Because wood is a natural material, every dish has its own grain patterns and colour variations. No two pieces are ever exactly alike. 🌳
 
These particular Ash pieces were originally cut for another product line, and I adapted the design to turn them into soap holders — a tricky but worthwhile transformation that gives them a fresh purpose. ✨
 
You’ll receive a dish similar to the photos, not the exact one shown.
