Terracotta Butter Dish
Helen Faulkner
This terracotta butter dish is ideal for keeping your block real Irish butter fresh yet spreadable! Big enough to hold half a block of butter, the perfect gift for the food lover in your life.
Hand-thrown in terracotta clay in Belfast, Helen has chosen a beautiful, smooth, turquoise glaze that contrasts with the exposed dark clay perfectly. The overall shape is a delight to hold, with the lines and curves as evidence that each piece is made by hand.
Dimensions and Care:
The butter dish measures approx. 9cm tall and 15cm in diameter. This piece is safe to use in the oven and dishwasher but not recommended for the microwave as the terracotta clay heats up very quickly.
