Placed beside the washbasin, this teakwood soap dispenser does more than serve its function — it makes the entire bathroom a touch more welcoming and natural. The square-shaped teak dispenser is made in the heart of Bali, where craftspeople make the most of the wood's natural beauty: it is not over-polished or painted — the wood is allowed to be the main decorative element in its own right.
Teakwood — a timeless material
Teak (Tectona grandis) is one of the most durable and refined tropical timbers, native primarily to Indonesia, India, Malaysia, Thailand, and Burma. Teak contains natural oils that protect the wood against moisture — making it especially suitable for bathroom accessories and kitchen utensils, where other timber species would quickly deteriorate. The oil-rich fibre structure also gives teak its characteristic warm brown shade and beautiful, straight grain.
Square form, minimalist appearance
The square design communicates stability and order — it stands firmly on the counter without tipping, and the liquid soap or hand sanitiser dispenser works with a smooth, precise motion. The body is made from teakwood and the dispenser mechanism from plastic — the latter can be easily removed when the reservoir needs to be refilled.
How to care for it
The teak surface can occasionally be treated with a small amount of teak or natural oil to maintain its freshness. Avoid storing it on permanently wet surfaces — it should be kept dry away from the bath rim. Rinse the inside of the dispenser with lukewarm water at regular intervals to prevent soap residue from building up.
