- Standout Looks: The unique glaze makes every single bowl feel like a one-off piece.
- Artisanal Variation: Colour depth can vary slightly between batches, so they're not perfectly identical.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Heather & Thyme Bistro in the Lake District was looking to swap their plain white plates for something that better reflected their rustic, locally-sourced menu. They needed tableware that was both beautiful and tough enough for constant daily use.
"The moment we unboxed these Olympia Kiln bowls, we knew we'd made the right choice. The moss green colour makes our food look incredible, and our customers constantly comment on them. They feel special, yet they've stood up to our commercial dishwasher without a single chip."
Robert Finch – Owner
The switch resulted in a noticeable increase in positive customer comments on presentation and has helped solidify the bistro's unique, high-quality brand identity.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
First Use & Care
- Upon delivery, inspect all bowls carefully for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
- Give them a thorough wash in a commercial dishwasher or by hand before their first use to remove any dust.
- When stacking, avoid creating tall, unstable towers to prevent accidental toppling and damage.
- Handle with care when loading and unloading from the dishwasher, avoiding knocking rims against other items.
Keeping Them Perfect
- These bowls are fully vitrified, making them resistant to absorbing strong odours or flavours.
- Use a soft sponge or non-abrasive scourer for any stubborn food residue to protect the glaze.
- While very durable, avoid subjecting them to extreme and sudden temperature changes (e.g., freezer to hot oven).
- In the unlikely event of a chip on the rim, remember they are covered by the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are the bowls all identical in colour and pattern?
A: No. Due to the reactive glaze used in their creation, each bowl has a unique finish with slight variations in colour and pattern, which adds to their charm.
Q: What does 'vitrified porcelain' mean?
A: It means the porcelain has been fired at a very high temperature, making it non-porous. This makes it incredibly strong, durable, and resistant to moisture and bacteria.
Q: Can I use these bowls in a salamander grill or under a heat lamp?
A: Yes, they are designed to withstand the heat of commercial kitchens, including short periods under heat lamps or in plate warmers.
Q: How many moss green ceramic bowl 165mm pieces come in one box?
A: These are supplied in a box of 6.
Q: Does the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty cover all types of damage?
A: The warranty specifically covers chipping on the rim of the bowl during normal food service, preparation, and washing.
Q: Are they heavy to handle for waiting staff?
A: They have a reassuring weight typical of high-quality porcelain but are not overly heavy and are designed for comfortable handling during service.
Q: Will the hand-painted rim wear off over time?
A: No, the rim is painted before the final glazing and firing, so it is sealed in and protected, ensuring it won't wash or wear off.
Q: Do these bowls stack neatly?
A: Yes, they are designed with commercial storage in mind and stack well to help save valuable space in your kitchen.

Explore more from Olympia KilnThe Art of the Reactive Glaze: Why Every Bowl is Unique
Ever wondered what 'reactive glaze' actually means? It’s a special finishing process that makes pieces like this Olympia GP470 bowl so distinctive. During firing in the kiln, minerals within the glaze react to the intense heat, creating unique, often subtle, variations in colour, pattern, and texture. No two pieces will ever be exactly the same.
Think of it like the natural grain in a piece of wood. While all the bowls come from the same 'tree'—the same design and base colour—each one has its own individual pattern. This process gives you the aesthetic of handcrafted pottery with the consistency and strength of commercially produced tableware. It’s the secret to achieving a genuinely artisanal look without the inconsistencies and fragility of true studio pottery.
Who Should Buy This?
- Farm-to-Table Restaurants: Perfect for beautifully presenting fresh, seasonal dishes, from soups to vibrant salads.
- Artisan Cafés: An ideal vessel for serving gourmet porridge, hearty pasta bowls, or signature side dishes with style.

- Gastropubs: The durable and stylish choice for serving everything from signature starters to delicious desserts.
