I am a butter case. All flaky crusty breads need a good sidekick and I’m the vehicle that delivers the star attraction… the taste, the cream and the smoothness of butter. Can’t wait to get buttered up!
Curator's Notes
This versatile butter case provides storage and refrigerator-to-table service in a beautifully crafted walnut wood container. The two-piece case includes a wooden butter knife, which sits conveniently along the interior, and a fitted edge so the lid sits tightly on the case. Two standard sticks of butter or a 1/2 lb block fits nicely in the container.
