That's it, a plastic oiler. It is cheap and serves its purpose, what should I say in a review. I like the flat top of the plate when I want to put something on the butter shelf (sometimes I stuff cheese in the butter shelf and the rounded dome or little handle on the lid won't let me. This one works because it's flat on top and rather out of the way Plastic than glass or porcelain so I don't have to worry about dropping it, that's what it is.
