Butter Dish Il mare

Butter Dish, made of Earthenware by Italian Nicola Fasano. This elegant butter dish is both functional and stylish, offering a convenient way to store butter without dealing with half-used and messy butter packages in the fridge. Serving butter in this dish is also a simple way to elevate your table setting, adding a touch of elegance to both everyday meals and festive occasions. The butter dish holds a 500g package of butter.

Each butter dish is handcrafted and features a glaze that withstands daily use. The hand-painted design makes each piece unique, with subtle variations in color and texture. Small imperfections and irregularities are a natural part of the traditional craftsmanship, adding to the butter dish's charming and timeless character.

"Il Mare," which means "the sea" in Italian, describes this deep blue porcelain series. The porcelain is hand-painted with a so-called splatter pattern, where the blue color is randomly splashed onto the ceramic to create a unique and individual character. In the Il Mare series, a lot of color has been used to almost entirely cover the white base, which still shines through the splashes, creating an exciting character.

Blue is an incredibly versatile color that can easily be combined with both vibrant and muted shades. We love to combine Il Mare with the Papa Giro and Scatole series, where the blue color creates a common thread in the table setting, while the different patterns add playfulness.

Earthenware is dishwasher-safe at lower temperatures, but hand washing is recommended to preserve the item’s original finish and extend its lifespan.
