Know before you buy
You pack softened butter into the lid of the crock and fill the base with a small amount of cold water. When you place the lid onto the base, the water creates an airtight seal that blocks oxygen, keeping the butter fresh and spreadable without refrigeration.
This crock is designed to hold one standard stick of butter. If you use larger or non-standard blocks, you will need to cut the butter to fit the capacity of the lid.
Marble is a natural stone, so it is best to hand wash it with mild soap and water rather than putting it in the dishwasher. Avoid using harsh acidic cleaners, as they can etch the surface of the stone over time.
To keep the seal effective and the water fresh, it is recommended to change the water every two to three days. Using cold, filtered water helps maintain the best environment for your butter.
While the knife is designed to match the marble aesthetic of the dish, it is a functional tool suitable for spreading butter or soft cheeses. However, it is not intended for heavy-duty cutting or chopping tasks.
