1. No more hard butter This French butter dish allows you to store your butter at room temperature just as you like. Pour cold water into the base of the dish. The water in the butter base creates a seal. Then, place softened butter into the lid of the butter crock, put the lid back on the base, and remember: for a better seal, the water level should be 0.5 inches above the waterline. 2. Handmade and functional We firmly believe that handmade designs can be both beautiful and practical. Months of effort have gone into perfecting the size, colors, and textures. Don't worry about whether your butter bell is suitable for Eastern or Western butter. If you have a large family, we recommend at least two ceramic butter dishes. 3. Lead Reactive Glaze Reactive glazes develop natural colors and textures at temperatures in the kiln. This is fantastic, but it also means each piece may vary slightly in color from what you see on your screen. Rest assured, our glazes are lead, so you won't have to worry about lead contamination or health risks. 4. holiday gift Our butter dish comes in sturdy and attractive packaging, making it an ideal gift for holidays, birthdays, or special occasions. Share the joy of easily spreadable butter stored in this unique container with family, friends, or loved ones.
