Sandalwood Aftershave Balm
An aftershave balm for skin the shave leaves irritated. Alcohol free, with witch hazel, a natural astringent, to settle nicks that sting. Lightweight and non-greasy; it absorbs quickly and leaves no film.
The scent is sandalwood: warm, woody, and matched to our shaving soap, so the ritual ends where it began.
100ml, a few dabs a day. Also in Aegean Citrus.
Sandalwood Shaving Soap
A traditional shaving soap, warm sandalwood scent. Loaded with a damp brush it builds a dense, cushioning lather; the blade rides on cushion, not skin. Glycerin draws in water, hydrating dry skin so the blade glides.
One 100g bar outlasts several cans of foam. Best built in a bowl; ours is carved to fit it.
Wooden Shaving Bowl
A shaving bowl carved from grained mango wood and treated for water resistance. The recess holds the soap puck snug, so it stays still while the brush works. Pre-rinse with warm water and the wood holds a little heat, loosening the lather as it builds.
Sized for the Kronos 100g puck; takes any standard shaving soap after it.
Description
Description
The sandalwood soap and the mango-wood bowl, sold as the pair they were carved and poured to be. The puck sits snug in the recess; the brush loads without chasing it round the sink. Rinse the bowl warm first and the lather comes up looser, faster.
This is how shaving soap is meant to be used. When the puck is done, the bowl takes any standard soap.

Stand and Brush Kit
The two pieces that turn a razor into a wet shave routine. The synthetic brush builds the lather and lifts the beard before the cut; the stand holds razor and brush upright between shaves, so blades and bristles both last longer.
Matched chrome, one footprint on the shelf, nothing further to think about.
20 DE Blades
Double edge razor blades in Swedish Cr13 steel, with a platinum-sputtered coating and no PTFE. A 13N edge; keen enough to cut cleanly, gentle enough for sensitive skin. One blade cuts level with the skin, not below it, which is where ingrown hairs start.
Packs run from five to fifty. Each blade is double sided, individually wrapped. They fit all Kronos razors and any standard double edge razor.

Frequent Questions
What's included in the Wooden Bowl with Sandalwood Shaving Soap?
Two pieces sold as a pair: the sandalwood shaving soap and a mango-wood bowl carved to fit it, so the puck sits snug and the brush loads without chasing it round the sink.
Can I use the wooden bowl after the soap runs out?
Yes, once the puck is finished the bowl takes any standard shaving soap.
How do I get the lather going faster in the bowl?
Rinse the bowl warm before you start. The wood holds a little heat, and the lather comes up looser and faster for it.
This bowl and its Sandalwood Shaving Soap were carved and poured to fit each other: the puck sits snug in the mango-wood recess, so a brush loads straight into it instead of chasing a loose puck around a bowl it was not sized for.
Grained mango wood, treated for water resistance, is the same material used across the Kronos wooden bowl range. The wood survives repeated wetting rather than warping under it, and the soap itself is a traditional puck, warm sandalwood scent, built to load with a damp brush into a dense, cushioning lather.
A puck that slides under the shaving brush wastes the first thirty seconds of a shave chasing it round the bowl; this one is sized to the recess it sits in, so the brush meets soap from the first stroke of the morning. The same Sandalwood Shaving Soap is sold on its own for whoever wants a replacement puck.
Sold apart, the puck and the bowl are simply a soap and a bowl that happen to be roughly the right size. Sold as the pair they were made to be, the recess and the puck are sized to each other from the outset, turning a routine task into something closer to a pleasure than a chore, with nothing left to chase round the bowl.
