BRONZE HANDLE BUTTER DISH $110 We love the simple, beautiful work of Portland based ceramicist Lisa Jones of Pigeon Toe. This hearty porcelain butter dish is enhanced by a square bronze handle giving it a modern but timeless elegance.

"When Pyrex was launched in 1915 as clear glass ovenware, American consumers needed to be persuaded that baking in glass was not only feasible, but provided benefits that baking in metal, iron, and earthenware did not have," Brumagen says. "To aid them in their campaign, Corning Glass Works executives turned to leading home economists to first test the new material in the kitchen and then to promote it to Americans through advertising, cooking columns in magazines, and demonstrations." Pyrex Utility Baking Dish, made by Corning Glass Works, 1915-1925.

"From the beginning, when wife of Corning Glass Works Physicist Jesse T. Littleton baked a sponge cake in the bottom of a battery jar made of NONEX, women have been involved in nearly every aspect of Pyrex development. NONEX was a new thermal shock resistant glass developed by Corning for railroad lanterns and other industrial products, and Littleton and others were looking for new products to develop with this unique glass. Bessie Littleton offered to test it out in her kitchen and made the famous sponge cake that launched the brand." Pyrex Covered Casserole, made by Corning Glass Works, 1969-1970.

Sphinx, the family Carolina dog, scouts the perimeter of the Concrete Collaborative pavers in the backyard. The pavers were installed on a slight angle to channel water to the surrounding gravel, lawn, and planting beds. This substantially lowers the landscape's water demand. Perforated PVC pipes and a pump move excess rainfall (which would otherwise go to storm drains) into an underground basin where it can later drain off. Redwood fencing reflects the material palette of the interior and creates visual continuity around the backyard.
