Tranquillo fair trade soap dish made of handmade ceramic

Sometimes it’s the little things that suddenly make a bathroom or kitchen so much nicer. A beautiful handmade soap dish from Tranquillo is a perfect example of that. It’s practical, colorful, and simply much more cheerful than a boring plastic tray where your soap ends up getting soggy. This is one of those little items that makes you wonder: why didn't I have this sooner?

Highlights

This zero waste soap dish is made of 100% fair trade and handmade ceramic and has a convenient size of 13 x 10 x 4 cm. The dish is oval in shape and has holes in the bottom, allowing excess water to drain away neatly. This keeps your soap from getting too wet, prevents it from sticking, and often makes it last longer. And honestly, it’s just a delight to look at.

The dishes are available in multiple variations, all with their own colorful floral prints and hand-painted look. That makes every piece slightly different and extra special.

Why you’ll love it

What I love so much about this is that it’s not just beautiful, but also truly functional. A good soap dish makes a big difference if you like to use solid soaps or shampoo bars. Without a proper dish, a bar often sits in a puddle of water, which just makes it mushy. With this ceramic version, you’re literally giving your soap a better life.

And yes, if you just love a beautiful bathroom or kitchen, this is a winner. Let's be honest: when something is functional and looks great, it always beats a boring solution.

Use & styling

This dish is, of course, perfect for all your soaps, but you can also use it to store other small items. Think of a ring, earrings, hairpins, or other small treasures that might otherwise just end up lying around.

How do you use it?

1. In the bathroom for a solid bar of soap or a shampoo bar.
2. In the kitchen for a hand soap next to the tap.
3. On your nightstand or dresser for jewelry or small trinkets.

What I often hear in the shop...
“It’s actually way too cute to just use for soap.” And honestly, they have a point.

Material & care

This dish is made of handmade ceramic. That gives it a beautiful, artisanal look and ensures that each piece has its own unique character. That is precisely what makes it so much more appealing than a standard mass-produced item.

To keep the dish looking nice, rinse it occasionally so that soap residue doesn't build up. Simply wipe it dry or let it air dry, and it’s ready for use again.

Sustainable & fair

What good does this item do for the world? This soap dish is 100% fair trade and handmade. Naturally, this fits perfectly with a conscious household that prefers beautiful, fair items that last a long time. And if you use solid soap instead of plastic bottles, a good soap dish is truly essential.

We are very enthusiastic about Tranquillo. For over 20 years, the brand has been creating fair and sustainable products with plenty of color and character. They work with short supply lines, transparent production chains, and natural materials. No colorless, sustainable dullness here, but products that show that living consciously can also be cheerful and beautiful.
