Yes, it works fine, just soak your brush in the bottom part and it warms up the soap. Beautiful antique, made in the days when houses had no hot running water and probably no heat at all. It was made in Austria, and i believe dates before the Great War.

I have one similar to it, that was my great-grandfather's.
For me it works best with small soap pucks with a depression to hold a puddle of hot water for blooming (eg. Williams Mug, Godrej Shaving Round). Also to use the same puck day after day, so that it never completely dries out.
I rarely use it though, for fear of dropping it.

SOTN Sunday
prep - shower with Caprina Fresh Goat’s Milk Original Formula bar soap
razor - British Flare-Tip Rocket
blade - Shaverboy Super Stainless (16)
brush - Fendrihan Classic Pure Grey Badger
soap - Truefitt & Hill Sandalwood cream
post - warm water rinse, DSA “Pure & Natural” alum, cold water rinse
aftershave - Proraso Red splash

A BBS finish to a day spent mostly flying kites. 
That was part of a celebration picnic for a friend surviving 5 years post brain tumour surgery.

The Proraso Red splash leaves some kind of film without being gooey before it dries - the shea butter? I like it.
