Le Butter Bell

France, 19th Century

$155

Antique Rare Terracotta

We can't stop thinking about these. Terracotta butter bells, once the French kitchen’s best-kept secret for keeping butter cool before fridges were a thing. Etched by hand and unglazed, Sylvie keeps one by the stove, ready for toast emergencies and late-night pan sizzles. We have two available, one with a faint white blush, the other raw terracotta.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.
