Colonel Conk - "A" Shave Mug #115A

A compact, traditional Colonel Conk "A" Shave Mug in classic white ceramic with a dark green decal, designed for efficient lather building with small to medium shaving brushes.

This vertically walled, coffee-mug style shave mug has a relatively narrow interior diameter (about 3.25″ to 3.625″) and a taller depth of roughly 3.75″ to 4″, which helps contain lather and keep things tidy at the sink. The straight, high walls make it ideal for standard-sized brushes, but users with very large knots (around 26 mm or larger) or thick, oversized handles may find their fingers and brush handle regularly clinking the rim while loading and whipping lather. For traditional, smaller brushes, however, the proportions feel secure and controlled in the hand.

The bottom of the mug is shaped to grip a standard 2.25 oz Colonel Conk glycerin shave soap puck, keeping the soap from spinning while you load your brush. This design lets you press the brush into the soap confidently without chasing the puck around the mug. The compact footprint saves counter space, making it a practical choice for smaller bathrooms or crowded vanities, while the handle and straight walls offer a familiar coffee-mug feel when in use.

• Classic vertical design: Traditional straight-sided ceramic shave mug with a white finish and dark green decal for a timeless barbershop look.
• Optimized dimensions: Interior diameter roughly 3.25″ to 3.625″ with 3.75″ to 4″ depth, providing a deep, contained lathering area.
• Best for standard brushes: Works especially well with small to average traditional brushes (around 19 mm to 22 mm knots) and shorter handles.
• Secure soap fit: Narrow, contoured base designed to hold a 2.25 oz Colonel Conk glycerin soap puck firmly in place to prevent spinning.
• Brush size consideration: Users with extra large knots or chunky handles may prefer a wider, shallower apothecary bowl or scuttle for greater comfort.

To use, press your soap puck into the base of the mug, add a splash of warm water, then work a damp brush in circular motions until you've built a rich, stable lather before applying it to your face.
