A pretty butter dish for your kitchen table... Handmade in California!
THIS IS FOR ONE (1) BUTTER DISH (EUROPEAN / IRISH SIZE)
Approximate Measurements:
Outside - 6" long, 5" wide & 4" tall (including handle)
Inside - 4.5" long, 3.25" wide, 2" tall
As you can see from the photo this size fits the Kerrygold butter perfectly.
This is made to fit a Kerrygold European 8 oz. butter stick which measures 3.5” long, 2.5” wide x 1.5” tall. It will also fit a Western US style butter stick (3.5" x 1.5").
It will NOT FIT the Eastern US style butter stick (4.75" x 1.25")
This beautiful dish is hand formed from dark red stoneware clay & glazed in our signature Aqua Mist*. It is hand decorated in our dot design with a special slip trailing technique. The texture beautifully breaks through the glaze to reveal the design.
As with all handmade pottery...every piece has its own unique handmade character and may have slightly different sizes, shapes and color variations. We never use molds and make each, one at a time. We always use lead free glaze & high fire in the kiln. All our dishes are food, dishwasher and microwave safe but hand washing is always recommended. Each piece is signed Back Bay Pottery and initials.
The bottom of the pottery is unglazed. They may scratch a delicate surface, therefore it is recommended to use them with placemats or a tablecloth.
*The signature Aqua Mist color is a special glaze and clay combination that took years to perfect. It is created using a dark Hawaiian Red clay and the glaze "breaks" over the high points so you can see the clay underneath.
