Butter dishes seem like a mundane thing until you start searching for one. I reject out of hand all those with no handle because I know from experience that without a handle the lid is difficult to remove. This one seemed like it would fit the bill, but the problem with it is that it was designed poorly. The dome of the lid is not tall enough. A standard cube of butter cannot fit inside without being smashed slightly and you end up with butter on the inside of the lid. This one will do for now, but my search continues for the perfect butter dish.

We house sat for friends a few years back. When I opened their cupboard and saw a beautiful rainbow of colors, I was instantly cheered and intrigued. Our friend had 12 place settings of Fiestaware in 12 different colors. She had had them for 12 years and had only broken one plate, in spite of having two active young boys. When I saw that they were used in a new restaurant nearby, I decided that they were, indeed, hearty. I began collecting Fiestaware immediately and have never regretted it. It gives me a lift each day and is fun to make colorful combinations for different seasons. I have chipped on cup (what a fluke) and cracked one plate in half when dropped from about 5 feet on the cement patio. We have dropped many pieces and are always amazed at picking them up unscathed. I have even stopped getting out the delicate Christmas china in favor of using all my red and green pieces. In the fall I use oranges and yellows and reds, in the winter I use Jewel tones, etc. I have "happy" plates according to my grandsons.

This butter dish does hold a standard quarter-stick, but you must carefully put the lid back on in order to avoid smearing it. There is a red butter dish online for half the price, which I also ordered, and I like it better.

I love this butter dish. The first one arrived broken (due to improper packaging) and it was quickly and easily replaced. I really love the color and it fits a stick of butter just fine. Maybe people are buying larger sticks of butter than I am because some people complained of not being able to fit an entire stick of butter in it. I get the Walmart kind (Great Value brand) and it fits perfectly with a little room to spare. Love this butter dish! I have it in scarlet and it goes so well with my red-themed kitchen! <3 <3 <3

The cover does not fit a regular cube of butter. When I removed the cover the butter cube was not on the dish, but in the lid..Poor Design..
Sent it back. Amazon has the best return policy, Thanks for making it so easy.

Although my Fiestaware is black I love this scarlett butter dish. It looks great on my black countertops. It is only made for a 1/4 lb. sticks. People trying to use it for the 1 lb. block will be disappointed.

I bought this for my daughter in law- she loves red, and she loves this butter dish!!

As with all Fiesta this is incredibly beautiful! What more can one say about Fiesta Ware .. PERFECTION! I will continue to order Fiesta from Amazon!

I still give this an excellent rating. The dish had a chip and I had to return the product. I was given an immediate refund with no questions asked. Excellent service. I will reorder the again.

This was a requested Christmas gift for my sister-in-law. She loves red and it seems to be her favorite color, so it was only appropriate to give her her red butter dish for Christmas.
