    Don't forget to check out your local Goodwill, too. To this date, my lathering bowl is one I got for 50 cents. It was so good I splurged and got a backup.

    You are right that the ridges make a difference. My favorite bowl is similar, but was made by a art student at a local university. It looks like it's supposed to be a fish curled up with it's scales raised on the bottom of the bowl. Talk about making quick lather. Looks like I need to make a trip to target to check these ones out.

    That is too funny, I bought the same exact bowl at target when I was looking for my first lather bowl.

    I hope you got a dozen at that price.
    You can use some for coffee, soup, some for nuts.

    Seriously when you find a bowel that just fits the hands
    grab an extra or two...

    Default Lather bowl

    That is really a nice looking lather bowl.

    I am going to have to stop by Target and pick one up.

    Thanks for posting your find.

    I was on the same mission... For the perfect lather bowl.

    I found mine, and right in the kitchen cabinet. It's called a "Grab-It" bowl, and they were made by Corning, and then Pyrex under the "Visions" name.
    Now, anything I grab that is soaped up and slippery is bound to slip from my grasp and break... The Grab-It's have a handle. Further, they are a perfect size with steep sides that keeps the lather in the bowl instead of all over the walls.
    My wife's, that I commandeered, is white, but yard sale season is here, and on my walk on Sunday I passed a few. I found two of the smoked amber Pyrex versions with glass lids. Those and a half dozen unopened jigsaw puzzles for my Adirondack neighbor who lost her husband days before Thanksgiving last year, brought the bill to an even dollar!

    They're not made anymore, but e-bay is full of 'em... Unless you don't mind yard sales...

    In white...

    Perfect lathering bowl for 3.99

    Ah! My shaving bowl is a big breakfast bowl that I got in my local supermarket for 1.50 Euros. Try and beat that! OK, it's plain black, not as fancy as yours
