Porte Savon, Savon de Marseille Refill, Box of 2
£19.50
Ex Tax: £16.25
A box containing two refills for the brass Marius Fabre wall hung soap holder, or Porte Savon. Made from genuine Savon de Marseille, made using 72% olive oil, from Salon-de-Provence where they have been made using the Marseille method since 1900. Batch processed in large cauldrons that are heated to 120°C for ten days allowing for a slow and thorough saponification of lye and oil, after which the curds are washed in both fresh and salted water to remove any trace impurities, before finally being allowed to cool and air dry in large flat moulds. Famously pure, gentle and emollient, the green olive oil soap is suited to facial, hand, and body use and for dry and delicate skin. With a central hole to fit over the holder, the soap rotates on the holder when in use. 290g each soap.
