I'm so glad I saw this - I'm really enjoying having such a stylish solution to the admittedly first-world-problem of trying to keep tiny bits of soap on the side of a very small hand basin, which are too angled and which deposited the soap into the basin as soon as it was breathed on, never mind when slippery and wet. The arm is solid, I love the fact it's brass and goes with the other fittings, and the soap smells wonderful as well as being very satisfyingly tactile to use. It's not cheap but is substantial and I think represents good value for money. I'm now staring at all the other places in the house I might conceivably put one of these instead of fumbling around with soap in a dish tucked behind a blind, for example!
