I like butter houses where the lid is a dome and the butter sits on a little dish below.
Moar practical for attacking the butter.

Unsalted? Are you taking the piss?

Look for French country butter dishes on etsy. Like this
Keeps butter at room temperature but the water keeps it from spoiling.
We love ours. Finding one in your style may take some time.

late to the party on butter dishes but I've done extensive research.
- Charity shops yield good cheap options
- Scandi stainless steel ones are nice, but knife scraping on metal hurts me

I like butter. All sorts of butters. I'm after a butter dish. I figure if we pay money for something that looks nice and keeps butter covered it will encourage my wife not to just leave open packets of crumb-filled butter to attract flies on the work surface underneath buttery knifes.
We have coppery stuff (pots and pans/kettle/toaster), oaky stuff (work surface), graphite stuff (units), slate stuff (floors) and white stuff (tiled splash back and walls).
If Dualit did butter dishes we'd be laughing. Since they don't, who does nice ones from a design point of view? I like le creuset stuff but we don't really own any so a random LC butter dish wouldn't really go.
I'm thinking potentially white ceramic with an oak lid?
Perhaps something like the above but better and that comes in a practical size (i.e. large enough to fit a 250g block - or ideally larger still as this butter is a current favourite).
I'm also completely serious.
