Covered butter dish (Pleasant Hill)

This English pottery pattern is called calico. It's super interesting, although I can't tell if it's true transferware. Maybe someone out there knows how to tell. I put a cube of butter on it to show it works for modern butter cube. The colors are true to the pieces. There is some crazing in the dish, but the glaze is not cracked.

This is another one I wanted to keep because my butter dish doesn't have a handle (totally annoying), but mine is clear (and from IKEA) which manages my expectations better. My mom is like a middle schooler and not only makes a mess with the butter, but often leaves it empty/smeared. I have been known to cry out, "what monster has done this?"

Thanks for listening.

I'm off Oak Park Blvd. in Pleasant Hill.
