What are the benefits & key ingredients?
-
Activated Charcoal
Naturally porous, activated charcoal draws out & absorbs dirt, oils, and impurities, making it a powerful addition to a deep-cleansing bar.
-
Pumice
Finely ground volcanic rock provides satisfying exfoliation, scrubbing away dirt, grime, and grease while remaining kind to hard-working hands.
-
Kaolin Clay
Exceptionally fine & mineral-rich, kaolin gently polishes the skin while absorbing excess oils & surface impurities without stripping away moisture. Its silky texture adds slip to the bar, leaving hands feeling clean, smooth, & refreshed.
-
Shea Butter
Unrefined & cold-pressed from shea kernels in Ghana using age-old techniques, this beautifully crafted butter is rich in vitamins & naturally occurring antioxidants. It brings a rich, creamy quality to the lather while leaving hardened skin soft, supple, and moisturized.
Studio Notes: Concrete + Clay
Inspired by the hands of my father: rough with hard work, marked by creation & repair, and covered in the evidence of a day well spent. Labor. He loathes scents in products and on people, so I created this simple fragrance-free post-work hand soap to neutralize odors and scrub away stubborn grease, dirt, & grime.
Concrete + Clay is a tribute to the happiness found in working with our hands. Made with gardeners, mechanics, laborers, creators, and tinkerers in mind: all those who build, fix, dig, make, shape, and leave a little evidence behind.
Beauty of Artisan Craft
Each bar is made in small batches and finished with care, so no two are precisely alike. Seasonal botanicals may bring subtle variations in color, texture, shape, and appearance: a natural reflection of the ingredients.
The process is deliberately slow and methodical, with each bar receiving the time and attention that artisan craft requires. Small variations are not imperfections, but signatures of the hand, much like freckles, they give each piece its own character.
No two are precisely alike. That is the beauty of something crafted with intention.
Intentionally small. Deliberately natural. Thoughtfully beautiful.

A True Everyday Workhorse
You can immediately see and feel the texture and grit in this soap, which I love. It feels masculine, purposeful, and like it’s made to actually do a job. It immediately reminded me of my dad!
I keep it at the kitchen sink and reach for it while cooking and after gardening. It does a great job of deep cleansing and, even better, neutralizing lingering smells on your hands. It feels hardworking without being harsh, and it’s become one of those products I didn’t realize I needed until I had it!!
