Shaving bowl made of genuine cow horn - The shaving bowl itself is crafted from a single piece of cow horn. The horn is cut lengthwise, shaped into a plate under heat, cut, and then shaped again under heat into the bowl. Only large cow horns are suitable—we primarily use horn from the African zebu cattle.

The base of the bowl is also made of horn—but this round, approximately 5-7mm thick piece comes from the solid tip of the water buffalo horn. The bowl fits perfectly in the hand and allows for comfortable lathering of shaving soap. The horn has been carefully polished and is thus well protected against soap and water by a layer of beeswax. Even moisture left over from the soap will not harm the bowl—however, you should avoid (if the bowl ever needs to be cleaned) very hot water, household cleaners, or even putting it in the dishwasher or flash drying it on a radiator or with a hairdryer.

Horn has a very pleasant feel—after all, the material comes from the same origin as our skin itself. Each bowl looks slightly different, as the horn always has individual grains.

The natural material does not release any harmful substances and does not react with the shaving soap.
