Vintage
Victorian Soap Dish, £20
Who doesn’t love a good coastal theme for their bathroom? We partly have the Victorians to blame for this fad, but we’d argue that even over 100 years on it works. Build your case for bathroom beach vibes with this vintage clam-shaped soap dish, which opens to reveal a handy blunt knife for nabbing bits of soap from the bar. A lovely finishing touch to your themed bathscape.
