Product Insights
The Simons Maison Small Scalloped Butter Dish ($7.50 CAD, in stock) accommodates half-sticks and European 100g pats without trimming, though standard US full sticks require trimming. Its smooth glass scallops rinse clean without residue trapping, and maintaining clarity requires air-drying with rinse aid and phosphate-free detergent, which also preserves scalloped-edge clarity in the dishwasher.

Deep Research
Keeping the glass clear in the dishwasher
- The high heat of the dishwasher's dry cycle accelerates chemical etching on glass; simply air-drying the butter dish after the rinse cycle preserves its crystal clarity and reduces the risk of thermal stress on the scalloped rim.
- Hard water minerals like calcium and magnesium deposit a white scale that dulls glass; adding rinse aid to each dishwasher cycle prevents spotting and keeps the scalloped edges uniformly transparent.
- Powder detergents containing sodium tripolyphosphate can permanently etch glass surfaces over time; selecting a phosphate-free gel or tablet prevents the cloudy film that would obscure the dish's clear, vintage character.
Which butter sizes actually fit this small dish
- A US half-stick (2.4" long × 1.25" wide) fits entirely within the dish's 4" × 2.5" footprint without any trimming, so you can drop a chilled half-stick straight from the fridge and the lid will close with no interference.
- A typical 100-gram European butter portion (approximately 3.2" × 2.1") slides comfortably into the dish, making it a practical choice for buyers who prefer European-style cultured butter in small wrapped pats rather than full sticks.
- The 2.5-inch width equals exactly the combined width of two standard US half-sticks placed side by side, allowing you to keep both salted and unsalted butter ready to serve under a single lid — a practical feature for home bakers or multi-taste tables.

Mignons, ils prennent peu d’espace pour le rangement…
Ils permettent des portions individuelles, pas besoin d’un beurrier central qui se promène d’un convive à l’autre. Les commentaires des invités à la table sont très intéressants et trouvent l’idée d’un beurrier individuel génial. Ils sont vraiment très beaux et brillent de tous leurs feux! 🤩🤩

Too small. Shipping outrageous and return policy ridiculous.
Cannot understand this product. Too small to be functional. Canno afford to return. Shipping costs outrageous. Will drop off at store in Vancouver next time I am there. Lesson learned.

Small butter dish
It is the perfect size I was looking for. It has an air bubble in the lid and I would have never bought it with that flaw…however small!!…I would have checked them all as this is a gift and now I don’t have time to return it.
So Cute
Perfect for the two of us to keep a small amount of butter at room temp.
Very, Very small scalloped butter dish
I guess I should have read the dimensions but this butter dish is really tiny. It only holds a few tablespoons of butter at the most. Be warned.
Pour la Fête de ma soeur!
Un petit bijou ... je vais lui insérer ses boucles d'oreilles (achetées chez-vous) au lieu du beurre en guise de présentation ... délicat à souhait!!!

Une trop petite taille
Le petit beurrier festonné
L'intérieur est plus grand que celui qui est carré. Je préfère celui-ci. Tous les invités auront leur beurrier et son couteau à beurre.
The Perfect Size
This tiny butter dish is the perfect size for one person who doesn't butter a lot of toast or pastries, but likes to have a small amount on the counter to keep soft for when the time is right without having to worry that it is going to spoil.
Too Cute!
This butter dish is super cute and very tiny, perfect for one person. I leave it on the counter and get lots of complements.
Extremely small
It’s a cute container but almost useless; I decided to keep it cause I got it on sale but I wouldn’t recommended it people who eat butter on the regular as it’s not big enough to hold an entire butter stick.
Small but cute. I put
Small but cute. I put it on my dining table.
Adorable pour une portion individuelle à table
Il est vraiment petit et contient environ 2 cuillères à soupe. On l'utilise pour garder un peu de beurre mou pour une personne ou à table, on en met un par invité. Il pourrait être légèrement plus grand mais je l'aime quand même. J'en ai acheté un deuxième pour une amie.

Small and very nice
Pratique
Petit contenant pour garder le beurre température pièce (par exemple pour rôties le matin). Se range bien dans l’armoire. La capacité est d’environ 1/4 tasse selon moi.
Small butter dish
This butter dish is very small and twee which I had not realized when I placed the order. It's lovely, but if your guests slather their rolls in butter you are going to need a few of these dishes!
Really little
Cute but kinda thin, have to be really carful with it.
Extremely cute!
It is very small. but very ornate. I love it.
Tout petit, mais parfait pour ma collection de vaisselle!
Le petit feston tout autour rappelle celui autour d'un plat de service ancien que je possède ; ce petit plus sera merveilleux.

Q&A
3 answered- Does this butter dish fit a standard 1/4 lb stick of butter?
- The dish measures 4" long by 2.5" wide, which is shorter than a standard 1/4 lb butter stick (typically 4.8" long), so it may not accommodate a full stick without trimming.
- Is the glass tempered or heat-resistant? Can it withstand hot contents or microwave use?
- The product description notes it is dishwasher safe but does not specify if the glass is tempered or microwave-safe. Temperatures for hot contents or microwave use are not provided, so we cannot confirm its suitability for those applications.
- Is the scalloped design easy to hand-wash without food residue getting trapped?
- Since the dish is dishwasher safe and made of smooth glass, the scalloped design should be easy to hand-wash with minimal residue trapping. Rinsing promptly after use helps keep it clean.
