Crafted from ceramic in a soft, pastel colour palette of green, lavender purple and yellow, this cheerful piece is both decorative and functional – perfect for everyday use or as a quirky display item in a retro kitchen or vintage-inspired home.
What sets this butter dish apart is its whimsical bread-slice shaped handle – a playful detail that gives it character and makes it a real talking point. Produced by Avon Ware, a renowned British pottery brand popular in the 1940s–1960s, this piece showcases the era’s love for practical yet charming tableware.
The dish is in lovely vintage condition, with only a small moulding mark on the inside of the lid – a common quirk of mid-century ceramic production and part of its handmade charm. No chips just gentle signs of a life well lived.
