Bubbles, brush and bliss.
Might this be the squeakiest-clean gift box yet? It’s certainly up there. Fer à Cheval makes Marseille soap the old-fashioned way, creating quality, hypoallergenic blocks with that classic French look. It’s a perfect partner to the durable, heat-treated French wood of the soap holder and nail brush: Use it to get out that dirt after gardening, or that flour after baking.
Includes: - 1 Heritage Nailbrush - 1 Heritage Soap Holder - 1 Fer à Cheval Marseille Soap

Andrée Jardin
France
For 60 years, Jardin has been making beautiful wood brushes in Brittany, France. Andrée Jardin and her husband, George-René Julio, drew on their old-school know-how when they opened up their factory in 1947, and they’ve since maintained their sense of traditional beauty while incorporating modern, whimsical design touches. Their brooms, brushes, and dusters are some of the only high-quality options made in a traditional way.

Beautiful addition to the bathroom sink
I’m happy with my purchase and would buy again but I couldn’t give 5 stars because mine arrived with a green block of soap that is very masculine in an unpleasant way. I plan on giving the soap to my father and getting something else but I would have like to have the pictured above since the look of the soap adds so much to this set. Bummer.
Great soap
I've had this soap for months and have been regularly using it, and it's only about 1/4 gone! It's very good for hand washing, it's not drying at all. It's also useful for especially greasy dishes, I keep it at the kitchen sink. I would change one tiny thing, include a divider between the brush and the soap- if one's not careful to keep them separate, the brush will stick to the soap.
Nice Looking but...
Ordered ash got walnut. The dark stain of the wood runs when it is wet, has stained the cloth this sits on. I worry about the softness of the bristles as well, how long will this last. (Too much trouble to return, given need to take care about deliveries.)
