To ask you to show me your butter dish

[MixedFamily]

Following from the (ver popular!) thread about butter I started s few days ago, I decided I want a butter dish to start keeping part of the butter outside the fridge.
Need inspo, how about a show me a pic of your butter dish thread? 😆

I have a Le Creuset butter dish in volcanic orange. I love it.

This thread is making me smile, thanks all. I am now converted and shall spend the eveninng browsing butter dishes to decide what to get, DH will be pleased

Vintage Denby here - daybreak design. I love it

A good dish, bought my wife one in grey - wish I'd known about their outlet shops though!
On a tangent I also bought DW Le Cruset salt and pepper mills - while salt mills are generally fine, this is the first peppermill I've bought and we're still happy with over a year later.
And I have bought ones at a similar price to the Le Cruset, so not just a question of getting what you pay for.

A timely post! My beautiful butter dish smashed at the weekend. We’d found it years ago at a vintage type sale.

This is mine, I love it, fits a whole block of butter.

Mine, from Asda

Ooh like a crock

I have the teal Le Creuset butter dish.TK maxx sell them for around £20 instead of the direct Le Creuset £42.

Ah now, this is my style, and practical too with the top handle.

Yes, I'm definitely returning the colourful folk-arty one and getting something like this.

Training need

Doesn't everyone still have that glass one with the cow etched into the lid?

I don't but I will soon! 😁As suggested by a couple of PPs (thank you!). I didn't realise it was a classic.

It's exactly what I was after for a second butter dish. Looks awfully easy to wash, and sturdy. No disrespect to all the lovely dishes shared here, but this is the winner. Plus, it can be used up or down, and it has a cow on it!

Well I do and there's lots on ebay so clearly lots of people have. I wanted a glass one because I already have a pretty ceramic garlic pot so wanted something simpler next to it so went for a glass butter dish. But can see the attractions of the pretty ceramic butter dishes.

I'm a bit late to the butter dish party, but have been loving the read and also have mad butter dish envy! Mine came from a craft market and is earthenware; it's not mega-practical because the top isn't dishwasher-safe, but a quick scrub under a hot tap gets it clean (only me and DH, no teens making toast every 5 minutes with jam tsunamis and nuclear crumb fallout). It lives on the (north-facing, marble) kitchen windowsill for spreadability.

I haven't seen one in all of the six pages, but you might consider a French butter dish, if you want to keep butter outside the fridge.

I have three of them and never looked back to "normal" butter dishes. You can actually leave butter outside the fridge in summer (but I put it back in the fridge overnight). Due to the seal with water, the butter keeps for at least 2 weeks in our house, more in winter.
I bought mine at potteries/on pottery markets, but I've seen offers on the Internet as well.

I've got one somewhere.

I have been lusting after James martins butter dish that he uses in his Christmas programmes for years! I eventually tracked it down & it’s nearly £140! I found a beautiful one in Germany instead but I’d still love his one.

This is mine 😊 except I can't seem to add it 😔

Here is mine, I painted this on at a pottery cafe! I'm pleased with it

So many butter dishes! I'm going to have to turn off all the notifications for this thread or I'm going to have nightmares about being chased by crowds of butter dishes! I didn't know there were so many different butter dishes! even though we've got three

Wow you are a skilled artist! I used to love the idea of pottery cafes till I went to one and tried it, then realised that I would have to have some awful mug in my kitchen that looked worse than my DS would have done at school 😂

Ha ha laughing at the idea that a block of butter would need to last as long as 2 weeks! I think we go through one every 4 days and we are only 2 adults and an 8 year-old. And the adults don’t even eat toast for breakfast!

I did u til I stupidly gave it away as never used it. I am going to look for one for my new kitchen when I move house in a colour I've decide is going to be my accent colour.
