Fiestaware was first introduced in 1936 and remained popular throughout the '40s, '50s, and '60s, prized for its art deco design, colorful glazes, and smart accessories such as creamers, vases, pitchers, and candlesticks. Fiestaware was reissued in 1986 to mark the 50th anniversary of the line and is popular today for the same reasons: bold colors, great styling, a la carte piece selection for a personalized set--and now a 100 percent lead-free glaze for better health. Today's Fiestaware is available in over 10 colors, so you can collect pieces in 1 color or pursue a mix-and-match effect with pieces of assorted colors. The thin shape of this butter dish fits easily in the built-in butter compartment of an average-size refrigerator, and its smart, streamlined appearance adds retro flair to a casual dining room or kitchen table. --Emily Wolf

 Fiestaware Butter Dish Is A Style Everyone Appreciates! January 6, 2001

I liked the Fiestaware Clock a lot but the butter dish is fantastic! It holds the cold from the refrigerator when the butter is on the table so no melting, spoiled butter. If the butter is too hard, a few seconds in the microwave softens it up! Attractive in all of these colors, the hardest problem was choosing which color. Fiestaware pieces don't have to be all the same color. That's why it is a Fiesta to use. Clean up in the dishwasher is just one more good thing about it. Maybe it's because I am getting older but I enjoy all these fun things in the kitchen and dining room. How about everyone else?
 Smaller than Butter!! February 1, 2002

This is a nice butter dish. Unfortunatly, it is shorter than a standard stick of butter (land o lakes). When you put the cover on a stick of butter, it actually sits about a 1/4" off the bottom, so the butter is never covered.

i have been using fiestaware for about 6 years - i have never,
ever had a problem with a stick of butter being to big? to fit
in one of my butter dishes????? that's absurd, i have probably
used every brand of butter in my area - land o'lakes, cabbots,
wal-mart, store brands....if anyone finds that the dish is too
small, they either have a HUGE stick or butter and can't figure
out out to trim it to fit!!!
WOW ........ gorgeous! August 19, 2002

Purchased this in black for a friend who has Fiestaware in black and white and have bought myself one even though I never thought I would buy a covered butter dish. And I use it more than I ever imagined. I like the style because its clean and doesn't have the "cute" silliness of most covered butter dishes.I guess that is what I like about Fiestaware anyway. It is so clean and neat as well as utterly gorgeous in colour as well as such a pleasure to handle. And my friends place looks so wonderful when he sets the table in the black and white Fiestaware, mixing plates, bowls, serving pieces.

Really great butter dish, but in the Seattle area it seems like most of the butter in the grocery stores aren't the long sticks, but instead are shorter and wider, like a squished-square shape. When I put one of these sticks in the butter dish, the top of the butter gets squished onto the inside of the top of the dish. Though I have found the long, "normal" sticks of butter here, they're not very common. Maybe I should move back to the east coast so my butter will fit in my nice butter dish :P
