Porcelain Shaving Dish MÜHLE Black RN 16

MÜHLE RN 16 is an elegant black shaving-soap dish made from fine porcelain in Germany. Its purpose is more specific than that of a large lather bowl: it gives a compatible shaving soap a permanent, stable place from which the brush can be loaded. A small elevation in the base helps keep the soap away from standing moisture, reducing the risk of it becoming soggy between shaves.

The deep black finish is achieved through an unusually careful process. Before the porcelain is fired twice, the dish is lacquered by hand; the result is a rich, even colour and a smooth surface that is easy to rinse clean. The compact form and understated finish make RN 16 a refined choice for a traditional wet-shaving setup built around durable, reusable accessories.

Choose this if

Choose RN 16 if you use a compatible MÜHLE shaving-soap refill and want a dedicated porcelain dish rather than disposable packaging. For vigorous bowl lathering with broad brush movements, choose a larger shaving bowl. Porcelain is also less practical for travel because it can break if dropped.

How to use

Place the compatible shaving-soap refill in the clean, dry dish. Wet the shaving brush, shake out excess water and load it on the soap with circular movements. Build the lather on the face or in a separate bowl. After use, remove loose foam and allow the soap and dish to dry before storage.
