Half the size of a traditional butter dish, Chantal mini butter diishes can sit at either end of a table for large-scale dinners, or they can be passed around for smaller get-togethers. Chantal's high quality stoneware is durable and can go in the refrigerator and microwave. The non-porous glaze will not react with foods or flavors. Holds 4 tbsp of butter, or half a stick.
