A suds bar for everyone on your special friends list!
About Our Soaps
Our Vintage soaps are triple-milled natural soap enriched with rich shea butter, creamy cocoa butter and virgin olive oil to create a luxurious deep cleaning lather. The bars are then paper-wrapped and banded by the grannies at the Historical Association’s Shaw House, who hand wrap every label depicting whimsical vintage images.
The soaps are made for the Moore County Historical Association's Vintage Soap Apothecary by one of the largest, most environmentally sensitive soap companies in the United States, the Greenwich Bay Trading Company. Some of their major clients include Burts Bees and Yves Saint Laurent and yes, not quite as big but very special, our Vintage Soapworks.
Under the Labels menu above, you will find some of our popular label designs. We can produce any type of customization on the front of the label as well as including your logo or shop name on the side at no additional charge. If a shop name is not noted, the Vintage Soapworks logo will be on the side. Labels are printed in groups of four. Minimum order for 24 bars or more is $1.75 per bar plus shipping. If you are not a retailer and are in North Carolina, tax will be added to the order.
SIZE
The size of each bar of soap is 1.875" wide by 2.25" long by 1" thick and weighs approximately 3 oz.
SCENTS
The soaps are a natural fresh scent and one contains a trace of ground apricot to create a luxurious deep cleaning lather. This scent is appealing and preferred by both men and women so it is used on all Men, Coastal and Regional, and Animal labels. Women are usually Soft Linen/Magnolia. Christmas are usually Sugar Pine or Snow Lily. Botanical bars are Garden/Magnolia, and Sugar Pine is scented accordingly.
EXTRA LABELS
Last, we also offer label reprints with stickers at no charge for those labels that someone might like to change.

We ship in three sizes of boxes - 100 count, 72 count, and 24 count. If you have an order over 100 bars it will ship in two or more boxes. Interestingly if you order 80 bars or 100 bars, the shipping cost is about the same.

How We Got in the Soap Business
The Vintage Soap Works is a subsidiary company of The Moore County Historical Association. The Apothecary's sole purpose is to provide a source of income for historical preservation. The business started in 2008 when the founder of Greenwich Bay Trading Company retired to the area. As a history lover, he proposed the idea of the association getting into the soap business with an old-fashioned hand milled soap. The idea took off and when one of our award-winning graphic designers started designing the whimsical labels, and well, the rest is history. Since our beginning in 2008, 100% of the profit from soap sales has gone towards the preservation of history.
