Birillo Alessi or Topsky Soap Dish?

It’s still really difficult to get Softsoap or any other brand liquid soap refill. We still had a little bit left over from our last purchase, but it was going quickly with all the hand washing. I never thought we would be using bar soap again, but it was inevitable given our meager liquid supply. I suppose we could use body wash as soap, but we had a bunch of sample soaps around and started using them. The only problem was we didn’t have any soap dishes. So we punted with a small kitchen dish, but the usual soggy soap started. I searched for a reasonable option and found a Topsky version that came in two, and was in two pieces so the soap could drip to the bottom. We put one in the kitchen and one in the bathroom. My husband didn’t like the color in the bathroom - but it worked in the kitchen because there are several other items it matches. So he started looking for something that might look better - especially since this was no longer going to be a temporary scenario. He found the Birillo Alessi two part soap dish that was white with a stainless top that also drains. It does look nicer in the bathroom since all the fixtures are silvery polished chrome. In the mean time we will leave the liquid dispenser on the sink in the hopes the backup bottle arrives soon. Ideally we would all love to have an auto sensor dispenser that would go along with an auto sensor faucet. Both of these items will probably become routine feature in any new home - just like slots for masks and gloves will become fixtures in the foyer or mud room. Who would have thought?
