IKEA ANVÄNDBAR Butter Dish By Mikael Axelsson-Terra Cotta Cover-Stoneware Base

The IKEA ANVÄNDBAR Butter Dish (designed by Mikael Axelsson) is a classic two-part dish that uses natural, porous materials to keep butter fresh and spreadable without refrigeration. Design Concept: It is based on a traditional method of cooling. The terra cotta (red clay) lid is soaked in water, and the subsequent evaporation draws heat away from the butter, keeping it cool and soft. Materials: It features a terra cotta cover and a contrasting stoneware base. Aesthetic: The design is rustic, simple, and functional, part of IKEA's ANVÄNDBAR collection that focused on natural materials and a greener lifestyle. Function: It is designed to keep butter at the ideal serving temperature for easy spreading.
