Expert Review and  Insights

The Olympia Fusion range is a real head-turner, and  this oval platter is the star of the show. The reactive glaze gives it an incredible depth and  individuality you just don't find in standard tableware. It feels substantial and  looks far more expensive than it is, making it a brilliant choice for establishments wanting to create a high-end, rustic-modern vibe.

Emily Hart – Tableware Expert View Profile →

  • Pro: The unique glaze on each plate provides an incredible 'wow' factor.
  • Con: The unglazed foot requires care on delicate wooden tables to avoid scratches.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Salted Fig, a contemporary eatery in Edinburgh's New Town, was looking to refresh its tableware to match a new, locally-sourced menu. They needed something that was both stylish and  tough enough to handle a packed service, seven days a week.

"The moment we unboxed the Olympia Fusion platters, we knew we'd made the right choice. The dark glaze makes our food photography pop on social media, and  customers constantly comment on them. They feel special, and  that elevates the entire dining experience before the first bite."

Michael Atherton – Head Chef, The Salted Fig

Since introducing the platters, the restaurant has seen a noticeable uptick in organic social media engagement, with customers frequently tagging them in photos of their meals.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Check each platter upon arrival to appreciate its unique glaze and  ensure it's perfect.
  • Give them a good wash in warm, soapy water or run them through a dishwasher cycle before their first use.
  • Stack them carefully, using the unglazed foot to help with stability.

Keeping It Going

  • When loading into a dishwasher, ensure plates aren't knocking against each other to protect the finish.
  • Although oven-safe, avoid extreme temperature changes (like moving from a hot oven to a cold surface) to prevent thermal shock.
  • The unglazed foot can be slightly abrasive; consider using mats on delicate or easily-scratched tabletops.
  • Remember, your platters are covered by the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty for extra peace of mind.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Crockery

Not sure what fits best for your business? Choosing the right plates is about balancing looks, longevity, and  practicality. Here are a few tips to help you decide.

Material Matters

Stoneware, like this Fusion range, offers a rustic, earthy feel and  is incredibly strong. It's heavier than porcelain, which adds to its premium feel, making it perfect for concepts that value authenticity.

Consider Shape and  Size

An oval platter is incredibly versatile. It breaks up the monotony of round plates and  is brilliant for long cuts of meat, whole fish, or a line of appetisers. This large oval serving dish is ideal for mains or sharing plates.

Look for Durability

In a busy kitchen, chips are inevitable. A lifetime edge-chip warranty, like the one offered with this platter, is a non-negotiable for smart operators. It shows the manufacturer stands by its product's toughness.

Match Your Ambience

Your crockery is part of your brand's story. A dark, dramatic plate like this suits modern, industrial, or fine-dining aesthetics, providing a bold contrast that makes food the hero.

Check the Practicalities

Always ensure your chosen crockery is dishwasher, microwave, and  oven safe. This operational flexibility saves time, reduces breakages, and  makes your kitchen team's life much easier.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What exactly is a 'reactive glaze'?

A: It's a special type of glaze that uses minerals which react to the heat in the kiln, creating a unique pattern and  colour on every single piece. No two platters are ever identical.

Q: Is the dark colour just a surface finish?

A: No, the colour is part of the vitrified stoneware, fused to the body during firing. It won't fade or peel and  is completely food-safe.

Q: What does an 'unglazed foot' mean for cleaning?

A: It simply means the base ring the platter sits on is un-coated. It's completely dishwasher safe and  the unglazed finish actually helps with grip when stacking and  carrying.

Q: Are these plates heavy?

A: As they are made from quality stoneware, they have a satisfying weight that communicates quality to the diner, but they are not unmanageably heavy for service staff.

Q: How stackable are they?

A: They stack very well. The unglazed foot and  consistent shape allow for stable stacking in a professional kitchen environment.

Q: Can I really put this from the oven to the table?

A: Yes, they are designed for oven-to-table service. Just be mindful of placing an extremely hot plate on a very cold or wet surface to avoid thermal shock.

Q: What's covered by the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty?

A: It covers chipping on the rim of the platter that occurs during normal food service, storage, and  washing, demonstrating the product's superior durability.

Q: Is the size suitable for a large steak or whole fish?

A: Absolutely. The 357mm length of this Olympia oval crockery platter is perfect for presenting larger main courses beautifully without crowding the plate.

More Than a Finish: The Magic of a Reactive Glaze

Ever wondered what 'reactive glaze' actually means? Think of it less like a coat of paint and  more like a chemistry experiment happening in the kiln. During firing, special minerals within the glaze react to the intense heat, flowing and  settling in a completely unique way on each piece. This process creates beautiful, one-of-a-kind patterns, swirls, and  textures that can't be replicated.

It’s a bit like how a geode forms crystals – the conditions create the result, and  every result is different. That’s why your Olympia Fusion Crockery oval plate will be yours and  yours alone, adding a layer of authentic, artisan craftsmanship to your tables that mass-produced crockery simply can't match.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Fine Dining Restaurants: Use this restaurant oval presentation plate to create a dramatic backdrop for signature dishes and  tasting menus.
  • Boutique Hotels: Perfect for elevating in-room dining, breakfast service, or for use in the hotel's exclusive bar and  grill.

  • High-End Event Caterers: Impress clients by using this large oval serving dish for canapés, buffet displays, and  plated corporate dinners.
