Description

Product Overview

TGS’s working bowl: an internal turbine-style texture that whips soap or cream into lather faster than plain walls, a handle for grip, and a rest that holds the brush between passes instead of leaving it face-down on the counter.

It is the practical middle of the bowl range: more lather speed than a smooth bowl, less ceremony than a scuttle, and the brush rest is the detail every wet shaver wishes every bowl had.

  • Handle doubles as a secure grip and a brush rest

What This Bowl Does

Lather speed is friction: the turbine texture gives the brush ridges to fold lather against, and the handle solves the two small nuisances of bowl lathering, grip and where the brush goes between passes.

The facts are the listing’s established ones: a TGS lathering bowl with internal turbine-style texture, grip handle and brush rest, in three colors. It makes traditional lathering easier, cleaner and quicker, which is the listing’s standing and fair description.

Who This Is Best For

Bowl-lather beginners
The texture forgives technique: lather comes fast even with a lazy swirl.
Tidy counters
The brush rest ends the wet-brush-on-marble problem.
Color matchers
Black, white or blue, chosen at checkout.

How To Use It

Load your brush from a puck or drop cream in the bowl, grip the handle, and work the brush against the textured walls until the lather peaks. Park the brush on the rest between passes.

It suits soaps and creams alike; harder soaps just want a better-loaded brush.

Care and Storage

Rinse and dry after use; hand washing keeps any glazed bowl honest.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the texture do?
The turbine-style ridges break lather against themselves as the brush turns, folding in air and water faster than smooth walls can.
What is the handle for?
Two jobs: a secure grip while lathering, and a rest that holds your brush between passes.
Which colors are there?
Black, white and blue, chosen at checkout; the bowl is the same in each.
Soap or cream?
Both work: load the brush from a puck, or scoop cream straight into the bowl.
Bowl, scuttle or wooden bowl?
This is the fast everyday bowl; the TGS scuttle adds warmth, the Emlok adds wood. We stock all three.
Is it heavy enough to stay put?
The handle means it does not need to be: you hold it while lathering, which beats chasing a light bowl around a sink.
Will it break if dropped?
Treat it as you would any bowl of its material; the handle actually saves most drops by keeping it in your hand.
Where is it made?
It is a The Goodfellas’ Smile product from Italy, per this listing’s standing specification.

    Before you pick it up, the bowl looks very valuable. That’s when you notice that it’s light as a feather, made of plastic.
    Still, and although it seemed pretty big at first glance, I’m very happy with it after a few weeks. It doesn’t look cheap at all!

    With 1-2 cm shaving cream from the tube directly into the jar, (calm Nivea: pleasant scent, also inexpensive, and works great), then with a damp brush (dip into warm water and shake it out gently once, then it’s just right) and lather in a circular lather for less than a minute: The resulting foam becomes nice and tight enough for the entire face! The shave will be nice and thorough.
    In the meantime, I no longer find the pot too big, but just right, and I also like to use the brush tray.

    If you are in the mood for luxury, you can spend a lot of money shaving. If you are more interested in the smooth result, you can really enjoy every shave with this jar, the cream mentioned above and even a cheap brush without natural hair or a silver handle.
