Fiesta 494 Covered Butter Dish

I guess that is what I like about Fiestaware anyway. It is so clean and neat as well as utterly gorgeous in colour as well as such a pleasure to handle. And my friends place looks so wonderful when he sets the table in the black and white Fiestaware, mixing plates, bowls, serving pieces.


Fiestaware Butter Dish Is A Style Everyone Appreciates!   January 6, 2001

I liked the Fiestaware Clock a lot but the butter dish is fantastic! It holds the cold from the refrigerator when the butter is on the table so no melting, spoiled butter. If the butter is too hard, a few seconds in the microwave softens it up! Attractive in all of these colors, the hardest problem was choosing which color. Fiestaware pieces don't have to be all the same color. That's why it is a Fiesta to use. Clean up in the dishwasher is just one more good thing about it. Maybe it's because I am getting older but I enjoy all these fun things in the kitchen and dining room. How about everyone else?

First of all, to those fellow purple lovers out there, this is a gorgeous shade of purple! It's the deep blue/red purple, not that new brownish raisin type that is prevalent. That said, this is a wonderful little butter dish. I've had mine for quite some time now and it's taken quite a beating from a toddler and still looks new. The knob on top makes it especially nice and easy to use. The bottom is large and rounded so that the butter doesn't fall off, but it's still small enough to fit in the butter compartment of your fridge. This is a great product and very pleasing to view as well. I mix mine with my Longaberger dishes too and it fits in beautifully. It washes up quite fine in the dishwasher as well (I use the top rack).

I searched for years trying to find a nice, plain white butter dish. This one is perfect -- it blends in well with all my other dishes. It is study, attractive, and holds a stick of butter. What more could you ask of a butter dish?

Works great and the handle on top is a much needed feature. My old butter dish (not fiestaware)did not have one of these and that is how it broke by being dropped.
