Yoou can feel the care that only comes from a hand made product. It is in the smell, the feel, and look of this wonderful soap. I just bought some for all my family as Christmas gifts, and I'll be purchasing more in the future. Thank you to all of the Craftsmen at the Palestinian Soap Coop. May the Father of all of us, bless you and your families with good health and prosperity. Salam.

Couldn't load pickup availability
Made by the craftspeople of Ceramic Al Fakhouri in Al Khalil, Palestine. Manufactured and painted by hand, and just the size for Nablus soap bar. Drain holes on each corner.
The Fakhouri family has passed down their craft through generations — their name comes from the Arabic "fukhar", meaning clay. Today, their shop persists through the escalating challenges of life under segregation and checkpoints, and a temporary move due to increasingly militarized conditions in the city this past year.
Dimensions: square 3.75" exterior, 2.75" interior.

Firstly this is the best soapI ever used, so, of course it deserves its own dish, like it’s own home on the countertop.
OK, I admit it, I didn’t buy these to use as a soap dish. I liked the pictures and the size and I use them to hold snacks. They work great for that even if they have drain holes.

I love these soap dishes and ordered three of them. I gifted the Olive design so I don’t know how it’s doing, but the Colorful Flowers and Blue Vines that I kept both have a chip that can’t be explained. I mean nothing was done to cause a chip. Not a thing! These dishes are just way too delicate or badly made. If I had caused the chips, I would reorder but I did nothing.
I purchased the "Olives" version.
It is a beautiful and functional work of art.
Very high quality and fits the soap bar perfectly.

I love my soap dish. It is just the right size and the design is very cheerful. I like having a piece of artisan pottery as well as having a reminder of Palestine in the bathroom. I would like the draining holes to be bigger, but that is a little quibble. Can recommend.
I love these little dishes. They’re absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately, they chip if you just look at them. I’m not exaggerating. I bought blue nail polish to fill in and cover up the chips on my Colorful Flowers and painted over the fixes with clear nail polish when they were completely dry. It came out okay but I promise you that I have no idea how it came to be chipped in the first place. Something about the process needs to be addressed.
lightweight and beautiful! i do think the drainage could be a bit better by raising the bottom of the dish so the holes arent blocked by whatever surface the dish is on.
I had problems with my order which had nothing to do with The Palestinian Soap Company. The staff were exceptional in sorting these issues out. I can't thank them enough and the products were amazing. I would thoroughly recommend them. Very pleased with both their service and quality.
We have soap dishes for our home and I always buy a few to support these Palestine artists and because they are the very best gifts!
I purchased the olive dish. It’s very beautiful and holds all of my olive oil soaps perfectly. I’ve had zero issues, the quality is wonderful.
Have you thought of trying to get an appropriate store in Austin, Texas to sell your products?
I first bought this soap in the West Bank years ago. I'm so glad to still buy it and my prayers are with the Palestinian people.
Highly recommend. Beautiful labels, non-drying soap. Superior to liquid hand soaps.
Fits the soap bar perfectly and is a delicate, beautiful addition to my bathroom. Free Palestine <3
Hand Painted Ceramic Soap Dish
Never disappoints. Good for sensitive skin and lasts for ages
Just a few natural ingredients and a texture that is silky smooth. The scent is subtle and clean. Leaves your hands and body without any dryness. I ordered the peacock soap dish too and it is just lovely with bold colors and the soaps fits in it perfectly. Thank you for keeping the art of soap making thriving through families that have kept the technique alive to pass to future generations.
I’ve purchased soaps, kuffiyahs and recently a couple of soap trays to gift. Everything is absolutely beautiful and amazing quality. I’ll be back again 🥰
Has a great use for your Nablusi soap bars but also serves as a cute decoration for your kitchen or bathroom or wherever you plan to keep it in your home.
My parcel was never delivered and I got no response when I emailed to ask what had happened to it and if a replacement parcel could be shipped. I was really excited about the soap (it’s my favourite and the only one that doesn’t irritated my skin) and the dish but I am very disappointed by the lack of response. I will be asking my bank about how to get my money back if this review doesn’t get a response either but will delete/edit my review if this issue can be solved.
Leaves my skin and hair so moisturized. I don't really need to use that much lotion anymore!
In short, I love this soap. Natural with no overwhelming perfume. It also has a great lather. I'm a repeat buyer and even buy some for gifting.
Skin healthy, lathers great
The soap itself is lovely and the dishes are beautiful. I bought a few extra to have on hand for gifts. I think the soap has also helped improve a family member’s eczema. Will buy again!
I like the product. It was a little complicated to get the item, but overall, happy with the ceramic soap dish.
It’s a wonderful soap, very pure and leaves your skin very soft
I bought one and came back to buy more for family and friends and they are sold out now. I love this soap and soap dish! Beautiful, simple and timeless.
This soap is so creamy, I’ve never seen such a creamy bar soap. I have allergies and eczema and cannot use most soaps but because this only has three ingredients and is very rich, I have no issues. 10/10 recommend and will be buying in bulk from now on!
Incredible, cured my eczema after years of having to use a topical steroid.
