This sampler of exquisite soaps includes five of the eight natural handcrafted "Soap Pebbles" from the Arghand cooperative in Afghanistan.

Handmade Arghand Amandine Soap Stone from Afghanistan (with palm and coconut oils, apricot kernel oils, sweet almond, cold pressed wild almond and almond extract). The oil of the tiny wild almonds, which grow in the highlands above Kandahar, gives this soap its character. A flat white oval, lightly colored with a swirl of wild almond butter.

Handmade Arghand Anisette Soap Stone from Afghanistan (with palm and coconut oils, cold-pressed sweet almond, anise seed and pomegranate seed oils, steeped licorice root). Licorice and alkanet roots, both wild vegetable dyes gathered locally, give this soap its distinctive coloring. Round and flat, yellow and lapis lazuli.

Handmade Arghand Desert Fields Soap Stone (with palm and coconut oils, cold pressed wild pistachio, pomegranate and castor, steeped Artemisia persica leaves and walnut hulls). Irregular, tawny-green. Perhaps Arghand's best cleanser.

Handmade Elixir of Artemis Soap Stone from Afghanistan (with palm and coconut oils, cold pressed wild almond, hemp, pomegranate seed and castor oils, and Artemisia cina essential oil). The heady aroma of this autumn-flowering herb gives this soap a festive note. A touch of ground turmeric root adds a joyous yellow hue. Flat, irregular, golden.

Handmade Arghand Kandahar Rose Soap Stone from Afghanistan (with palm and coconut oils, cold pressed sweet almond and pomegranate seed oils, and essential oil of Rosa damascena). So ancient is the tradition of distilling the essence of the "Kandahar Rose" (Rosa damascena) in Kandahar, that the very word for rose is "flower-water flower." Egg-shaped, white with a swirl of pink.

Handmade Mountain Herb Soap Stone from Afghanistan (with palm and coconut oils, cold pressed hemp, black cumin, pomegranate seed and castor oils and essential oil of wild mint). The pistachio green color of this soap comes directly from its hemp and vivid green cumin seed oils.

Handmade Arghand Pomegranate Soap Stone from Afghanistan (with palm and coconut oils, cold pressed sweet almond and pomegranate oils, pomegranate concentrate). This soap, fragrance-free and rich in pomegranate seed oil, is especially suited to sensitive skin. Round, deep red.

Handmade Arghand Thornblossom Soap Stone from Afghanistan (with palm and coconut oils, cold-pressed sweet almond and pomegranate seed oils, and essential oil of Salvia spinosa). This rare flower, which grows wild in the hills above Kandahar, posesses an intoxicating, fruity odor, and is known for its medicinal qualities. Triangular, violet.
