The move towards raw, textural tableware is one of the biggest trends in dining right now, and  this Olympia Corallite range absolutely nails it.

  • Real Character: The unique glaze ensures no two pieces are identical, adding authentic charm.
  • Niche Style: The strong industrial look might not suit more traditional dining room aesthetics.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Copper Pot, a bustling eatery in the heart of Edinburgh's Old Town, decided it was time to refresh their tableware. Their old white plates felt tired and  didn't match the vibrant, rustic Scottish food they were creating.

"We wanted crockery that felt as special as the local produce we use. The moment we saw these Olympia concrete bowls, we knew they were the ones. They make our cullen skink look absolutely incredible and  customers constantly ask where we got them from. They feel substantial and  look fantastic on camera."

Isla Campbell – Owner & Head Chef

Since introducing the new bowls, The Copper Pot noted a significant increase in guests photographing and  sharing their food on social media.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Getting Started

  • Wash thoroughly in warm, soapy water before the first use to remove any dust from manufacturing or transit.
  • Thanks to their clever design, these bowls stack neatly on top of each other, maximising your shelf space.
  • While very durable, always handle with care to get the most from them for years to come.

Keeping Them Perfect

  • These bowls are fully commercial dishwasher safe for fast and  hygienic cleaning.
  • To maintain the beautiful glaze, avoid using harsh metal scourers or overly abrasive cleaning chemicals.
  • The Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty gives you confidence that they're built for the pressures of a professional kitchen.
  • Being oven and  microwave safe, you can gently warm them before service to keep food hotter for longer.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Crockery

Not sure which plate is your mate? Here’s a quick guide to help you choose the best crockery for your business.

Material Matters

Fully vitrified porcelain, like this, is the industry standard for a reason. It's non-porous, incredibly strong, and  brilliant at retaining heat, keeping your hot dishes warmer for longer.

Style and  Colour

Your crockery is the canvas for your food. A darker, textured bowl like this concrete grey one can make colourful ingredients pop and  adds a modern, premium feel to the dining experience.

Consider Portion Size

Choose shapes and  sizes that fit your menu. These 160mm commercial deep serving bowls are perfect for stylish starters, sides, tapas, or desserts where presentation is key.

Check for Stackability

In any professional kitchen, space is at a premium. Always look for crockery designed to be stackable. It’s a simple feature that makes a huge difference to daily operations.

Look for Durability

An edge-chip warranty is a sign of a manufacturer's confidence in their product. It's your assurance that the crockery is built to withstand the knocks and  bumps of a busy service environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these bowls sold individually?

A: These Olympia FB959 concrete grey serving bowls are supplied as a convenient, cost-effective pack of 6.

Q: What does 'fully vitrified' actually mean?

A: It's a high-temperature firing process that makes the porcelain non-porous and  exceptionally strong. This prevents it from absorbing moisture or odours and  makes it far more durable.

Q: Can I use these bowls in a commercial microwave?

A: Absolutely. They are both microwave and  oven safe, giving you the flexibility to warm dishes before service or reheat portions as needed.

Q: Is the grey colour exactly the same on every bowl?

A: Due to the special reactive glaze used, you can expect slight, subtle variations in the pattern and  tone. This is an intended feature that gives the collection its unique, rustic charm.

Q: What is the capacity of these bowls?

A: Each bowl holds up to 250ml (8¾oz), making them the perfect size for starters, desserts, or generous side dishes.

Q: What does the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty cover?

A: It provides a guarantee against chipping on the rim of the bowl during normal food service use, offering excellent long-term value and  peace of mind.

Q: Are these heavy enough to feel high-quality?

A: Yes, they have a reassuring weight that feels premium in the hand without being too heavy for staff to carry multiple plates during a busy service.

Q: What does the BS4034 standard signify?

A: This is a British Hotelware Standard which certifies that the product has very low water absorption and  is tough enough for professional catering and  hospitality use.

What Makes a 'Reactive Glaze' So Special?

Ever wondered how some ceramics get that beautiful, mottled, one-of-a-kind finish? The secret is a 'reactive glaze'. Unlike a standard, uniform coating, a reactive glaze contains special elements that react to the intense heat inside the kiln during firing. This reaction creates unique, often unpredictable, patterns, drips, and  colour variations across the surface of the bowl.

Think of it like a ceramic fingerprint – no two bowls will ever be exactly identical. It's the perfect way to get an authentic, handcrafted look with the strength and  consistency of commercially-made porcelain. It means you can serve dishes on crockery that feels personal and  artisanal, giving your customers an experience that feels far more bespoke and  memorable.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Trendy Urban Bistros: Perfect for serving artisanal soups, grain bowls, and  creative pasta dishes with a modern, edgy presentation.
  • Boutique Hotels: Ideal for adding a touch of sophisticated, industrial chic to in-room dining or breakfast service.
  • Farm-to-Table Restaurants: The earthy, raw finish beautifully complements fresh, rustic ingredients and  creative, seasonal menus.
  • Modern Tapas Bars: The 160mm size is spot-on for presenting small plates and  sharing dishes with unique character and  style.
