One of the cutest and unique butter dishes I’ve seen. It’s perfect size to hold not just butter. If you like room temperature cheese this is perfect. It has plenty of room for a nice sized cheese wedgeblock. It also works great for guava paste.. Maria. Sugar Land, TX. Tue Sep 22 2026

Whale spray as a knob for easy grabbing and the lip design greatly prevents the cover from slipping raised scale line keeps your butter in perfect position.

Adorable. It's plenty big for a standard stick of butter and might even fit a European block.. Sheila. Oklahoma City, OK. Thu Oct 08 2026

This is a nice display piece, not sure why they call it a butter dish because it's way to large for that but makes a nice centerpiece on my kitchen island.. Kristine. Sudbury, MA. Wed Jan 20 2021
