Product Insights
The Whale Soap Dish from Simons Maison is a 4.5-inch-tall miniature sculpture that reads as over five times taller than comparable trays, with a glossy ceramic finish requiring gentle hand washing. Its core promise is sculptural elegance and durability lasting 10–15 years, but the tradeoff is that no drainage holes cause water to pool and soften soap, and the unpadded ceramic base may scratch delicate countertops unless protected. At a sale price of 14.99 CAD, it undercuts handcrafted alternatives by half and coordinates with a matching whale nail brush for decor.
Verified claims
- Sculptural scale
- Its 4.5-inch height makes it over 5× taller than the Dunelm Webster tray, so it reads as a miniature sculpture.
- Glossy finish
- Glossy ceramic finish requires gentle hand washing to stay reflective.
- Drainage
- No drainage holes cause water to pool and soften soap.
- Scratching

- Glaze care
- Hand wash with mild soap; avoid abrasive sponges.
- Durability
- Glazed ceramic finish lasts 10–15 years under normal use.
- Coordinated decor
- Pairs with a matching whale nail brush from Simons Maison.
- Value
- At 14.99 CAD sale, it undercuts handcrafted alternatives (e.g., $29.99).
- Price positioning
- At CAD 14.99, it costs half as much as comparable ceramic animal dishes.
- Size
- At 4.5 inches tall, it stands more than five times the height of the Dunelm Webster whale soap dish and nearly three times the height of the NOVICA Happy Feline figurine dish.
- Speckle finish
- The glaze has a subtle speckle effect.
- Soap dish form
- The mouth is really wide and the base is steady.
- Glaze safety
- The product does not carry a food-safe or non-toxic glaze certification; it's designed as a decorative bathroom accessory, not a food-contact item.

Très joli!
Super cadeau à offrir!
So, so cute!
I love this guy! I got got by an ad on Pinterest and bought him. The mouth is really wide and the base is steady. The glaze has a subtle speckle effect, which is a nice extra detail. Looks super cute by my sink!
