These are great little mini presents. The dactylioceras ammonite soaps are boxed individually.
The ingredients lists are below and printed on the outer wrapper of each little box.
One box contains a soap wrapped in white tissue paper, sealed with a Mount House sticker, and a small square card with Jo Witney's drawing of the dactylioceras soap. The outer sleeve is a translucent vellum paper.
Essential oils scent the soaps. Rosemary and lavender grow happily in the garden at Mount House. These plants inspired the choice of scent and a little warming cedarwood was added. In the box are three beige bladderwrack seaweed soaps (bladderwrack adds nutrients not found in land plants), and three more authentically coloured black soaps, which can be a bit messy due to the charcoal and black clay (avoid use with white flannels). The black glossiness of the black soaps is pleasing - and useful for washing really dirty hands after gardening as the dirt does not show on the dried soap.
Minimum weight of each soap = 20 g, diameter 5 cm, one side is flat - as is the original prepared dactylioceras ammonite.
