Late Victorian Brass Tub-Mounted Soap Basket

3.5” H x 4.75” W x 7” D

Meet your new favorite bathroom accessory: a genuine late-Victorian brass soap basket (circa 1890–1920) that simply hooks over the rim of your tub and gives your daily routine a dash of old-school charm. Crafted from solid brass wire and left with its mellow honey patina intact, it drains water beautifully so your soap stays firm and lasts longer. Compact enough for any bath—around 5″ wide and 3″ deep—this little basket was once a must-have in homes where soaking was as much about relaxation as getting clean. Originals like this are hard to find (most got swapped for chrome in the 1930s–’40s).

Condition: 

Brass has patina due to normal age-related wear.
