Emily Hart – Tableware Expert View Profile →
- Pro: The unique finish and shape instantly elevate dish presentation.
- Con: The non-standard shape requires a little extra care when stacking.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Meadowsweet Bistro in Bath was looking to move away from standard white tableware to something that better reflected their farm-to-table ethos. They chose the Olympia Kiln collection to add a rustic, yet refined, touch to their service.
"Our customers constantly comment on the plates. They love the unique shape and finish, and it really makes our food photography pop on social media. It's a small detail that has had a huge impact on our presentation."
Eleanor Vance – Owner & Head Chef
The switch helped reinforce their brand identity, leading to a noticeable increase in positive online reviews mentioning the overall dining atmosphere.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully unpack and inspect each plate for any signs of damage during transit.
- Before their first use, run the plates through a full cycle in your commercial dishwasher to ensure they are perfectly clean.
- As vitrified porcelain is non-porous, there's no need for any pre-seasoning. They're ready to go straight away.
Keeping It Going
- These plates are tough, but avoid 'shocking' them with sudden extreme temperature changes.
- When loading the dishwasher, try not to overcrowd them to prevent items from knocking together.
- Stack with care. Alternating the orientation of the triangular plates can sometimes create a more stable stack on your shelves.
- The Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty provides excellent cover, so you can use them with confidence every day.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are all the plates in a box identical?
A: No, and that's their charm! The reactive glaze process ensures that each plate has a slightly different pattern and finish, making every piece unique.
Q: What does 'vitrified porcelain' mean?
A: It means the porcelain has been fired at extremely high temperatures. This makes it non-porous (so it won't absorb flavours or odours), much stronger, and more resistant to chipping and stains.
Q: How many plates are in one box?
A: The Olympia GP325 sandstone side plate is sold in a box of 6.
Q: Can I use these plates in the microwave?
A: Yes, they are perfectly safe for use in a commercial microwave.
Q: Are they really tough enough for a busy restaurant?
A: Absolutely. They are designed for commercial use, are fully dishwasher safe, and meet the BS4034 standard for vitrified hotelware.
Q: What does the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty cover?
A: It protects against chips to the rim of the plate occurring under normal, everyday food service conditions.
Q: What sort of dishes is this 165mm plate best for?
A: It's the perfect size for serving starters, side dishes, desserts, or artisan bread and butter.
Q: Is the colour a flat cream?
A: No, it's a 'Sandstone' finish which is a warm, creamy colour with subtle speckles and texture from the reactive glaze.
The Olympia Kiln Advantage: Artistry Meets Commercial Durability
Choosing Olympia Kiln isn't just about buying a plate; it's an investment in your customer's dining experience. For years, Olympia has been a trusted name in professional kitchens, mastering the difficult balance between beautiful, on-trend design and the non-negotiable need for durability. The Kiln collection is the pinnacle of this philosophy. While the reactive glaze and hand-painted rims provide a unique, artisanal feel that elevates your food, the vitrified porcelain body (certified to BS4034) ensures it can withstand the relentless cycle of service, washing, and stacking. This long-term reliability means fewer replacements and a consistent, high-quality presentation, allowing you to build a memorable brand identity from the ground up, one beautifully presented dish at a time.
Explore more from Olympia KilnWhat Exactly Is a 'Reactive Glaze'?
Ever wondered why no two plates in this collection look the same? That's the magic of a reactive glaze. During the firing process in the kiln, minerals within the glaze react to the intense heat, creating unique and unpredictable patterns, colours, and textures. It’s a bit like how a firework bursts in the sky – you know the general colour, but the exact pattern is a one-off every single time.
This means you get the beautiful, hand-crafted look of artisan pottery but with the strength and consistency of commercially produced porcelain. It's a fantastic way to give your tables a bespoke, high-end feel without the fragility or cost of genuinely hand-thrown items. Each plate tells its own subtle story.
Who Should Buy This?
- Fine Dining Restaurants: Perfect for presenting a delicate amuse-bouche or an artistic dessert that deserves a unique backdrop.
- Artisan Cafes: Ideal for serving a generous slice of homemade cake or a gourmet pastry, making it instantly Instagram-worthy.
- Boutique Hotels: A brilliant choice for elevating your room service offering or for side dishes in the hotel bistro.
- Gastro Pubs: Fantastic for serving tapas-style sharing plates, artisan breads, or a special starter.
