The lid lets you store and carry solid soap; grooves in the base reduce contact with moisture and make the soap easier to lift out. Leave the box open in a ventilated place to support drying between uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMaterial and characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eI work with natural cork selected from the cork oak woodlands of southern Portugal. The exterior and inner surfaces are finished with natural waxes. The inside of the drainage grooves remains unfinished to allow direct contact with moisture. Variations in colour, texture and porosity are natural features of cork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCork is a \u003cstrong\u003e100% natural, renewable and biodegradable\u003c\/strong\u003e raw material, harvested without felling the cork oak. \u003cstrong\u003eLightweight and reusable\u003c\/strong\u003e, this box is designed to carry soap on many trips, with the cleaning and drying care described below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLaboratory studies have observed antibacterial activity in cork samples. These findings about the material do not constitute antibacterial certification of this box or replace cleaning and drying between uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the end of the box’s life, also take its natural wax finish and any other components into account.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLearn more \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/about-cork\"\u003eabout natural cork and its characteristics\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eApproximate dimensions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eInterior (L × W × H): 6.2 × 6.2 × 3.2 cm (2.44 × 2.44 × 1.26\u0026quot;).\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eExterior (L × W × H): 8.5 × 8.5 × 5 cm (3.35 × 3.35 × 1.97\u0026quot;).\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eApproximate weight: 30 g.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eDimensions may vary slightly due to hand-making.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility with round soap bars\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can also use this square box with round soap bars up to \u003cstrong\u003eØ 6.2 cm and H 3 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e.

After use or travel, leave the box open in a dry, ventilated place. Drying time depends on the soap, humidity, ambient temperature and how long the box remains closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAvailability, making and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eI make these boxes by hand in small batches. I prepare items in stock for dispatch in 5–7 business days after payment is confirmed. For items not in stock, production takes 3–5 weeks after payment is confirmed. For customisation or business orders, I assess feasibility and confirm times and conditions in the proposal.
