What are butter dishes called?
Butter dishes are normally just called butter dishes. They include a flat tray that you place a stick of butter on and a removable lid that keeps out debris and pests. A round container that you fill with butter is a butter crock, butter keeper or butter bell. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of butter dishes.
