Le Creuset Stoneware Heritage Butter Dish, White

Honestly, I never thought I’d be this hyped about a butter dish, but here we are. I’m really liking this one. Why it’s a win: • It’s Gorgeous: The grey (Oyster) color looks super sleek. It’s one of those items that actually makes my kitchen look more "put together." • Built Like a Tank: It has that heavy, high-quality feel you expect from Le Creuset. It doesn't feel fragile or cheap at all. • Actually Works: It keeps the butter at that perfect "easy to spread" texture without it getting gross or oily. Plus, the handle on top is easy to grab. • Easy Cleanup: I just throw it in the dishwasher and it comes out looking brand new. One heads up: It's sized perfectly for a standard stick of butter. If you buy those massive chunky blocks, you might have to trim them down a bit to get the lid to sit flush. Bottom line: If you’re tired of looking at a messy butter wrapper or a cheap plastic tub, just get this. It’s a nice little daily upgrade.

Update! They sent us a new butter dish out right away and it’s been fantastic!!! We love the “Le Creuset Stoneware Heritage Butter Dish”, it’s just the right size, it’s made well, and it’s easy to wash. It’s a very cute and functional butter dish. —————————————————- The butter dish is great, well that is to say that it WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT IF …it didn’t come with a SHATTERED bottom piece. :-( I’m so bummed! The entire bottom plate was shattered into pieces! These dishes are expensive and it literally had ZERO protective measures taken for such a fragile item during shipping. There was ZERO protection in or around the item, just one little layer of cardboard…that’s it! I’m sure this will soon be a favorite piece of kitchenware in our home when we finally get the piece replaced with one that is not broken. Haha I have to say that at least they made the process of replacing it a breeze with GREAT customer service! :-)

This butter dish is the epitome of fancy stoneware. My husband, a potter himself, even gave his potter's seal of approval. It's heavy, the lid sits well into the base with a snug fit - as if these pieces were made to go together - and it appears to be pretty traditional and easy to use. I would recommend.

This butter dish is large enough to hold two regularly sized sticks of butter, side-by-side. The soft gray outside of the dish is quite pleasing and would blend with just about any kitchen decor. It is easy to remove the lid, and the loop handle at the top allows it to sit without getting butter on anything else when placed on its top. The smooth surface of the dish, inside and out makes it quite functional, and easy to clean with just a paper towel. I've not seen a comparable dish for the price, so you will surely agree that it is a great value. The lid seals well when closed, so we keep it on the countertop so the butter is soft and easily spreadable.

It looks very pretty on my counter or table, is practical and well-made.

I purchased this for myself daughter for a Christmas present. She had mentioned that she would like one. We both like Le Creuset cookware. She was pleased with her gift. The dish is larger than my Le Creuset butter dish as it’s a different model. It was affordable at $35 from Amazon & Le Creuset products are all durable. Example: I’m using a small saucepan with lid that my mom received as a wedding gift in 1957. The butter dish keeps your butter protected & soft for daily use at room temperature! We both enjoy purchasing Le Creuset products for each other for gifts! It’s quality merchandise. I collect Flame color & my daughter likes Cerise! I believe it came in a variety of colors!

Le Creuset is a great company. This is a sturdy butter dish. I wanted black, but didn't realize that it was gray on top. It blends into black as it moves to the bottom. My mistake. It seems to close well. There is room for two sticks of butter or European butter. I would hand-wash it. That would be easy to do. I returned it due to the color. I was not sure that it would keep the butter fresh. I chose a dish with a silicone seal instead.

I had this on my wishlist for almost a year before finally treating myself, and I have zero regrets. This butter dish is both beautiful and functional, which is exactly what I was hoping for. The Cerise color is that gorgeous cherry red that Le Creuset is known for, and the nonporous, non-reactive glaze is resistant to chips, scratches, and stains, so it holds up beautifully with everyday use. The virtually nonstick surface makes cleanup quick and easy, and it resists cracking and crazing over time, which means it stays looking just as beautiful as the day you bought it. What really sets this apart is how versatile it is. It goes safely from the freezer to the oven to the microwave to the broiler to the dishwasher, and it can even handle metal utensils, so there's no babying required. It's perfectly sized for a standard stick of butter but wide enough to accommodate most European-style sticks as well. Whether you're softening butter for baking or serving it at the table, this dish transitions seamlessly and looks stunning doing it. If you've been on the fence about splurging on this one, consider this your sign to go for it.

The inner boxes were damaged but the butter dish was intact, very happy with the dish

It's the best butter dish I've ever had!
