Ridged shaving bowl?

...At the moment I am using a soup bowl, and have put an epoxy glue rings round the inside. That doesn't really seem to be enough as it's not really rough enough.
I have got some small beads which I did use ad they worked perfectly...

Don't take this personally Dave, and I'm not the most talented DIYer myself, but that epoxied soup bowl with the beads you did has got to be the ugliest shaving bowl I've ever seen.
Hope the Suribachi bowl will serve you well. Let us know how it performs when you get it.

Got the bowl yesterday. Gave it whirl this morning. Whipped a lather super easy and fast. The ridges are perfect for agitating the soap. Well worth the wait for it.
 
I have the one by Ceramic Me (Bianca Bardas), sold by Gallant and Klein

from the USA. Will let you know how it goes when it arrives.

fancontroller, you have enabled me.

I've been looking to treat myself to something shave related with a little money I received at Christmas, and this hit the spot. Currently on its way from the US, should be here in just over a week.

That was a great deal. I think I'd actually prefer a glazed inside suribachi as opposed to a non-glazed inside suribachi.

One thing that I wondered though; how easy are these things to clean up afterwards? I mean sometimes with a regular ridged bowl I have soap (not lather) left stuck on the ridges, I would image on a suribachi that's a bit of a pain clean off. Any experience?
 
used it this morning soo far it cleans up good. no soap stuck inbetween the ridges think maybe its beacause its glazed inside so its easy to clean it
