Description
Keep your butter soft and easily spreadable at room temperature while protecting it from spoilage, dust, and the noses of inquiring pets.
Thrown with earthy tan speckled clay and decorated with a beautiful lead-free water blue-grey glaze, this modern yet rustic butter crock will look gorgeous on your table or countertop. It is made up of two parts, the lid/ butter bowl and the base or water bowl, and is easy to keep clean and care for.
How to use your French Butter Crock
- Firmly pack room temperature butter into the butter bowl, on the bottom of the lid.
- Add a couple of centimetres of fresh, cold water to the water bowl and a pinch of salt.
- Invert the butter bowl and replace the lid on the base.
- The water will seal the butter from the air, protecting it from exposure to the air and extending its shelf life for up to one month, while keeping the butter easily spreadable at room temperature.
- Change the water every 3 days, or more often during hot weather. Remove the water and place your butter crock in the fridge if you plan to leave for an extended period.
Care Instructions: Microwave and dishwasher safe. Please keep your butter crock in a cool, dry place away from windows and heat sources (such as your oven/stove). When it is time to add new butter, you can run the set through the dishwasher if desired. Just be sure it is completely cooled down before you add new butter, or it may slide out.
Dimensions: Approximately 2.5 inches (6.35 cm) tall and 4 inches (ca. 10 cm) across.
Capacity: Holds approximately 1/2 cup of butter
Note: Given the handmade nature of my work, each piece is unique and may vary slightly in design, size, color and texture.

Beautiful handmade pottery, clearly crafted with care. Looks even better than in the pictures! Arrived fast and was carefully packaged. Will definitely order more once the collection expands.
