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.
The Tradizionali series is a symbol of traditional Apulian ceramics and can be found in most homes in Apulia. With its hand-painted, characteristic pattern of blue flowers framed by two thin brown lines, the sturdy ceramics provide a rustic touch that immediately brings to mind an Italian family dinner among olive groves and lemon trees.
The lines are painted by placing the ceramic on a rotating plate, controlled by a foot pedal, where light brush strokes create delicate lines while the plate rotates. The blue flowers are applied individually with a small stamp. This creates variations that make each detail special. Each plate is unique, with each brushstroke adding a personal touch and creating variations in the design.
Earthenware is dishwasher-safe at lower temperatures, but hand washing is recommended to preserve the item’s original finish and extend its lifespan.
