butter dish
A butter dish is a specialized dish with a lid or cover, typically made of glass, ceramic, plastic, or metal, designed to hold and serve a stick or block of butter, keeping it fresh and preventing it from exposure to the outside environment. It is usually sized to fit a standard butter stick, and can be used both for serving at the table and storing in the refrigerator.

Butter dish
A butter dish is a specialized dish in which butter is served. It would normally have a base with a separate fitting lid with its own handle. A typical measurement is 8 inches by 5 inches. Butter dishes are commonly made of stainless steel, silver or porcelain. The metal examples tend to have within them a glass base to protect the metal from the corrosive effects of salt within the butter. An alternative to a standard butter dish is a French butter dish, also known as a butter crock.
