Butter Bell

Butter Bell - stoneware speckled clay
NZ$65.00

A ceramic butter bell is a simple, beautiful way to keep your butter soft, spreadable, and fresh on the bench - no more tearing your bread with cold butter straight from the fridge.

Each butter bell is made up of two parts: a base that holds a small amount of water, and a lid (the “bell”) where the butter is packed. To use, simply soften your butter and firmly press it into the bell-shaped lid, ensuring there are no air gaps. Add a little cold water to the base, then place the lid upside down into it. The water creates an airtight seal, keeping the butter fresh while allowing it to stay perfectly spreadable at room temperature.

For best results, change the water every 2–3 days and keep your butter bell out of direct sunlight or heat. It comfortably holds enough butter for everyday use, making it both practical and a lovely addition to your kitchen.

Each butter bell is handmade, so no two are exactly the same. Expect subtle variations in size - part of what makes your piece uniquely yours.
