A Victorian-style silver-plated butter dish consisting of a footed base, a tall fixed overhead handle, and a domed lid. The base and the lid feature a wide embossed decorative band with paisley and foliate motifs. The handle is ornamented with scrolled flourishes at the top and the points where it joins the base. The domed lid is crowned with a circular ring finial. The interior contains a removable circular liner plate designed with a central drainage hole and six star-shaped piercings, intended to allow moisture from melting ice to drain away from the contents. No hallmarks or maker marks are visible on the exterior surfaces.
