Weird French Design for Wall-Mounted Bar Soap is Actually Kind of Awesome
For what it's worth, I've seen similar soaps growing up in Belgium in the 70's or 80's as well. They weren't terribly common in Belgium - maybe just used in public places like trains stations etc?
Your comment is just sad. learn, travel and then come up with clever comments.did you know french people also wear garlic necklaces and only eat baguette ?
Always found it a little disconcerting, would much rather use liquid soap in a public setting.
New Yorkers: you can get these at Moon River Chattel on Grand st in Brooklyn.
Also I would like to know the excess consumption in both the ways of usage. If anyone knows please post the information.
It is still easy to find new, but you won't see it anymore in public spaces, as it is definitely no so hygienic as a liquid soap dispenser. (think about flu,sars, ...)
producer: Provendi.

=> products => solid soap.
exactly the same design.
Hard to find in public places since the 90's, replaced by liquid soap.
too bad i can see a lot of our society not wanting to give a wall mounted soap penis a handjob.
Maybe.. this is copyed from korean thing.
It's SAME exactlry,
You still find thousands of them, but most were replaced by liquid soap dispensers (always empty of course)
There is indeed a metal sleeve in the soap so the bar can freely rotate which is great since you want it to be used evenly.
Thanks for the great childhood memory!
Interesting concept though. Us New Yorkers definitely can use these in our minuscule bathrooms.
