Bar Sizing
Not everyone has the same size hands, nor does one size bar work for all purposes. We offer five sizes to accomodate a broad range of uses and users.
- Spa Size - Our most popular bar, a squarish block which fills the palm comfortably and evenly. It makes a balanced frame for most logos.
- 5.4 oz, 2.75" x 2.25" x 1.5"
- Shower Size - Longer and thinner than the spa bar, this is the closest in shape to the average soap bar and dish. It can also be best for long, thin logos or brand names.
- 4.9 oz, 3.5" x 2.25" x 1"
- Personal Size - A thin bar with a face large enough for easily readable logos, this size makes a wonderful promotional item. Also popular for gifts and travel usage.
- 1.6 oz, 2.75" x 2.25" x 0.5"
- Hotel/Gift Size - This, our smallest bar, is ideal for hotel use as an ammenity bar. It works equally well for gifts or as wedding favors.
- 1.25 oz, 2.25" x 1.5" x 0.6"


Branding
Each of the bars can be hand stamped with your logo, beautifully extending your brand into the finest of handmade soaps. There is a one time charge of $200-$300 to have the stamp made, then a $0.15 per bar charge for stamping. If you would like this option you will need to send us a computer file of your chosen logo or design (.pdf, .eps, .ai) at the time you place your order or soon thereafter. We will have a brass stamp made to fit the size bar you choose. This stamp is yours to be reclaimed at any time.


Beveling
Our basic bars have the clean, straight lines left by our guitar-string cutters, creating a square edged bar with a rugged look and feel. For those who want a more refined finish, we offer the option of hand-beveling the edges and points. Because the beveling is done free-hand without the use of machinery, each edge has small undulations that give evidence of the bar's artisan roots, creating a look similar to carved stone or a block of hard cheese. There is a charge of $0.35 per bar for this option.
Packaging
Although many of our customers display their soap unpackaged, due to the beauty of the natural colors and lusciousness of the botanical scents, we offer packaging options for those who prefer an enclosed bar. We have carefully sourced our materials for maximum sustainability and designed our packages to highlight both the bar itself and your brand on it. The soap is shipped in bulk, unpackaged, to reduce costs for the purchaser and allow you to embellish our supplies with your own flourishes. In all cases we have minimized the packaging to both reduce your costs and reduce the use of natural resources.

Bag and Sticker: This is our simplest and least expensive option, yet is carefully designed for maximum visual appeal and sustainability. The bag is cellophane, a material manufactured from wood pulp and fully biodegradable. We source cellophane that is made from plantation grown eucalyptus and aspen, not native forests or old growth trees. The sticker is made from tree-free paper produced from sugar cane waste, cotton lint, and bamboo. The ink is soy-based and the adhesive is water based so the entire package is fully biodegradable and mostly compostable. Each sticker will be stamped with the appropriate scent and shipped separate from the bag. The bags can be purchased for $0.08 each, the stickers for $0.10 each, or both for $0.15 each, and will be sized to fit the type of bar ordered.


Slat Soap Dish: Another dish that holds two soaps handily, this thin, graceful tray cradles the bars aloft on thin slats of bamboo held in a rigid rectangular wooden frame. Like the Bamboo Soap Dish, this item makes for a wonderful gift pack. Each item is $5.00.
Gift Box: Made from pauwlonia wood, fast growing, drought tolerant, cultivated tree, this box is light in both color and weight, but possesses a surprising strength. With its four square compartments wonderfully sized for our Spa bars, and its tight fitting overhanging lid ready to enclose the contents, this box can make a wonderful gift. Each compartment can hold a different soap or you can include your own personal touch like a washcloth, loupha, or other bath item. These boxes are $8.00 each.
Custom Soap Blends
For those who want the freedom to create their own unique soap, or if you have a special ingredient or natural perfume that you want to incorporate, like your own olive oil, flower petals, or essential oils, we can accommodate you. Here is a list of the ingredients you can choose from. Please email or call us when you have arrived at some possible combinations or if you have questions. The one case minimum order still applies. The custom soap is not guaranteed to come out exactly as you imagine it, but it is guaranteed for any flaws in workmanship. Any custom recipes will be held strictly confidential.
