French butter crocks offer an old world solution to keeping butter both soft and fresh on the counter, and their popularity continues to grow for the beauty and simplicity they bring to our high-tech lives.

This version by Oregon Stoneware Studio is made of hand-thrown and glazed pottery embellished with a cow medallion by the pewter artisans of Crosby & Taylor. The special edition set includes a custom designed cow themed spreader, also by Crosby & Taylor, rendered in hand-cast, lead-free American pewter. Due to handcrafting, variations and minor imperfections should be expected and confirm the artisan character of the work.
