Jasmine Ylang Ylang Erode Soap
A bar of soap shaped like a river stone, oversized and ridged, that changes form the longer it lives by your sink. Erode is hand-poured in small batches and left to cure for eight weeks before it ever reaches water. Blended with goat's milk, mineral-rich clays, antioxidants, and essential oils sourced from the markets outside Ho Chi Minh. The oversized form wears down slowly as you wash, the ridges softening and settling into something new each week. At 12 ounces a bar runs close to a year. It sits perfectly in a Bouton dish.

Material: Cold-process soap, goat's milk, botanicals, mineral clays, essential oils

About UMÉ Studio
UMÉ Studio is a multidisciplinary design practice founded in 2016 by architects Victor Lefebvre and Mei-Lan Tan, who met while working at Herzog & de Meuron in Basel before settling their studio in Oakland, California. The name comes from the Japanese word for plum, a fitting reference for a practice rooted in Asian craft traditions and an architect's eye for form.
Lefebvre and Tan begin each piece with materiality. They travel for months to artisan workshops across California, Paris, Kyoto, Bali, and beyond, drawing on century-old skills and techniques, then updating those forms for contemporary life. The result is a collection of tactile objects that blur the line between art and function.
