Handling Precautions

  • Please note that this product does not include a butter knife.
  • Before use, wash with diluted dish detergent or lukewarm water and rinse thoroughly. After washing, immediately wipe away moisture with a cloth and dry completely.
  • Use the same care method after use or when dirt is a concern.
  • Place butter directly inside the container for use.
  • Occasionally wipe the exterior surface with tissue paper or similar to remove oils.
  • Do not use dishwashers, dryers, or microwaves.
  • Avoid soaking in water, placing in direct sunlight, extremely humid locations, or excessive drying as these may cause warping or cracking.
  • Do not use for purposes other than intended.
  • As this is a natural material, the wood's color and aroma will change over time. Slight warping or distinctive aromas may also occur due to seasonal or environmental changes.

A luxurious butter case made from mountain cherry blossoms

This wooden butter case is recommended for those who prefer bread for breakfast. It is a luxurious product carved out of domestic cherry wood. The butter case made of solid wood not only allows you to enjoy the gentle wood grain, but also protects the butter from temperature changes and keeps it in good condition. It looks good when served on the table, and will add a nice touch to your mornings.

The insulating effect of wood keeps butter in good condition

Mountain cherry is a strong material that is tough and resistant to cracking, and is also used for cutlery and tableware. The dry environment inside a refrigerator is a harsh one for wooden products, but even in that environment, this wood is resistant to warping and distortion. By hollowing out the wood to give it thickness, it becomes stronger and protects the butter inside from the sudden temperature changes caused by taking it in and out of the refrigerator, preventing it from getting too cold and hard.

A convenient size that can hold commercially available butter.

It is made to fit 200g of store-bought butter so that you don't have to cut the butter. There is also a recess in the body where you can insert a butter knife.

Enjoy the unique aging process of wood

As you use the wooden butter case, the oils in the butter will cause the color to deepen and the butter will take on a glossy finish. We hope you enjoy watching the changes that occur as the case matures over the years of use.
