"A nice addition to the bathroom"

I purchased this item along with the soap dispenser. The two pieces complement each other nicely, and they look lovely together.

"Nice touch!"

This item stands out in the bathroom as a delicate piece. Everyone notices it, and Ive gotten a lot of compliments on it. I would prefer the top to be made of metal instead of plastic.

"Ceramic work and colors attractive"

I waited beyond anticipated arrival date for the cotton bud jar because it became lost in transit and I received a replacement. I am very fond of Talavera ceramics but am disappointed in this item. The cotton ball applicators I use are actually longer than the container. I was concerned because the lid did not close all the way, but once the applicators were put in base it wouldnt have closed anyway. The quality was not what I have come to expect from Novica.

"Pretty addition to vanity"

Talavera ceramics are my favorites, so I was delighted to find this dispenser. I planned to use it for my favorite lotion instead of the huge manufacturers container. Unfortunately I was unable to transfer the thick lotion into my beautiful dispenser and will need a different lotion that pours more easily. The dispenser opening is rather small but probably works well for liquid soap. The pump attachment does not fit the top well. It will not close to get a seal but continues to turn.Once I get the dispenser filled I will retest or try to contrive a fix. Rating currently is for the workmanship, quality, and lovely design of the dispenser.
