A nickel butter dish with a clear glass dome, the form of a Parisian breakfast service. Holds a stick of butter at the temperature it should be served.

You set it on the breakfast table. At the dinner where bread is part of the meal. On the counter of the friend who actually bakes.

A gift for the housewarming. The bridesmaid who got the apartment with the kitchen island. The mother who finally serves butter at room temperature.
