  • Cons: As with all stoneware, it's slightly heavier than porcelain which staff may notice.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View, a coastal restaurant in Port Isaac, Cornwall, was looking to refresh its tableware to better reflect its seaside location and  focus on fresh, local seafood. They chose the Olympia Green Verdigris plates to complement their new menu.

"We wanted plates that felt as natural and  unique as the Cornish coastline. These were perfect. The colour reminds our guests of sea-weathered copper, and  every dish just pops. Our customers constantly comment on them."

Robert Finch – Head Chef

The investment led to a noticeable increase in social media shares, with guests frequently photographing their meals against the distinctive green backdrop, boosting the restaurant's online visibility.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

First Use and  Setup

  • Unpack carefully and  check each plate for any transit damage.
  • Give them a good wash in a commercial dishwasher or by hand with detergent before their first use.
  • When stacking, ensure shelves are clean, dry, and  strong enough to take the weight.
  • Avoid sliding plates on top of each other; lift to stack to protect the glaze.

Keeping Them Perfect

  • While tough, avoid extreme and  sudden temperature changes (e.g., from a hot oven straight into cold water).
  • Rinse off acidic foods like lemon or vinegar soon after use to maintain the glaze's integrity.
  • Regularly check the edges for any small chips or cracks, and  remove any damaged items from service.
  • The unglazed foot can be scrubbed if it picks up marks over time.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Tableware

Not sure what to look for in new tableware? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Material Matters

Stoneware, like this Olympia FA321 plate, offers a rustic, earthy feel and  is incredibly strong. It's perfect for casual, fine, and  farm-to-table dining. Porcelain is more traditional and  lightweight, while melamine is a durable plastic ideal for outdoor or high-volume settings.

Size and  Shape

Think about your menu. A 180mm plate is perfect for starters, sides, or desserts. Larger plates are needed for main courses, while bowls are essential for pasta or soups. A consistent shape and  style across your collection creates a professional look.

Stackability

In a commercial kitchen, space is gold. Always check if plates are designed to stack neatly. It not only saves space but also reduces the risk of chipping and  breakages during storage.

Colour and  Style

White is a classic canvas that makes food pop. However, coloured or patterned plates, like this green verdigris flat round plate, can create a unique mood, reinforce your brand, and  make your dishes instantly more memorable.

Durability Features

Look for terms like 'fully vitrified' and  'rolled edges'. Vitrification makes the plate non-porous and  stronger. Rolled or reinforced edges provide extra chip resistance, which is vital for longevity in a professional environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is every single plate really a different pattern?

A: Yes, that's the beauty of the reactive glaze. While they all share the same green verdigris colour palette, the specific patterns and  textures on each plate are unique due to the kiln-firing process.

Q: What is stoneware? Is it strong?

A: Stoneware is a type of ceramic fired at high temperatures, making it very dense and  durable. It's much tougher than earthenware and  is fully vitrified, making it ideal for commercial use.

Q: Can these plates handle a hot pass or salamander?

A: Yes, they are oven-proof and  designed to withstand the heat of a professional kitchen, making them perfect for finishing or keeping dishes warm.

Q: Will the colour fade after many dishwasher cycles?

A: No, the glaze is bonded to the stoneware at a high temperature. These plates are designed for commercial dishwashing and  will retain their vibrant colour.

Q: Is the 180mm measurement the inside or the total diameter?

A: The 180mm (or 7 inch) measurement refers to the total outside diameter of the plate.

Q: What does the 'unglazed foot' do?

A: The base of the plate is left unglazed to create a slightly rougher texture. This provides grip and  helps prevent the plate from sliding on smooth tables or serving trays.

Q: Are these plates heavy to carry?

A: Stoneware is naturally denser and  heavier than porcelain, which gives it a quality, substantial feel. Staff may notice the difference, but they are designed for easy handling in service.

Q: Can I use sharp knives on the Olympia green verdigris plate?

A: Yes, the glaze is tough and  resistant to cutlery marks from normal dining use. As with any plate, excessively aggressive cutting should be avoided.

What Exactly Is a 'Reactive Glaze'?

Ever wondered why no two plates in this set look identical? That's the magic of a reactive glaze. It's not just a simple layer of colour. During the firing process in the kiln, special minerals in the glaze react to the intense heat, flowing and  settling in a unique pattern. Think of it like the natural grain in a piece of wood or the marbling in a stone – it’s a natural, artistic process that can't be perfectly replicated.

This means that instead of a set of identical, factory-produced clones, you get a family of unique individuals. For your restaurant, it means the plate holding a customer's meal is a one-of-a-kind piece of art, adding a subtle but powerful layer of exclusivity and  craft to the dining experience.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Fine Dining Restaurants: Perfect for presenting intricate starters, appetisers, or desserts that demand an artistic backdrop.
  • Farm-to-Table Bistros: The rustic, earthy tone wonderfully complements fresh, seasonal, and  locally sourced ingredients.
  • Boutique Hotels: Add a touch of bespoke luxury to your in-room dining, breakfast service, or hotel restaurant.
  • Artisan Bakeries & Cafés: An ideal 180mm canvas tableware plate for showcasing signature cakes, pastries, and  speciality scones.
