The Small Frog Butter Dish by celebrated French ceramic house Astier de Villatte brings a playful touch of character to the table. A small sculpted frog perches atop the softly domed lid, lending the piece a gentle sense of curiosity and charm.
Resting on a scalloped plate, the dish is designed to keep butter neatly at hand for breakfasts or shared meals. Both practical and decorative, the frog detail introduces a subtle note of humour while maintaining the quiet refinement that defines Astier de Villatte’s tableware.
