Victorian Style Shaving Soap Scuttle Mugs

[Pedigree]

Does anyone here use or collect them? They are the mugs with a front spout and a bowl on the top to hold a puck of soap. I have 9 of them and just find them to be captivating. Pics coming soon.

I used to collect them and had about 100. At the time I had an 18th century cottage with beamed ceilings and they were hung on hooks. After I moved to a more modern house I had no means to display them and sold the lot. I have an album with photos of each.

I do like them and have one somewhere, I've not used it though as I found my soap and brushes to be too big for it.

I have 6 Victorian style scuttles. I use them often. I enjoy Haslinger soaps and the pucks fit perfect in the soap tray. And i like a warm brush, so I often soak a boar or badger in the scuttle.

Looks like a Victorian pee Moka pot, mixed with coffee and urine, I wonder how it’s taste, and how much energy booster’s that last you throughout your day?
