Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Crimson Lantern, an award-winning fusion restaurant in Bristol, was looking to update its tableware to better reflect its innovative menu. They needed something that was both durable for service and  visually unique to enhance their dessert presentation.

"These plates have completely transformed our dessert service. The copper shimmer under the lights looks incredible, and  our guests are always impressed. We've seen a noticeable uptick in customers sharing photos of their food online, which is fantastic free marketing for us."

Michael Edwards – Head Chef

Since introducing the plates, the restaurant has noted a 15% increase in dessert orders and  a significant boost in social media engagement featuring their dishes.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, carefully unpack and  inspect each plate for any transit damage.
  • Give the plates a thorough wash in a commercial dishwasher or by hand before their first use.
  • Brief your team on their quality to encourage careful handling from day one.
  • Designate a specific, safe, and  easily accessible storage space on your shelves.

Keeping It Going

  • When loading into a dishwasher, avoid overcrowding to prevent chipping and  ensure a perfect clean.
  • Always use a non-abrasive sponge or cloth if washing by hand to protect the unique finish.
  • Stack plates carefully, and  for long-term storage, consider using felt or foam plate dividers.
  • Although tough, avoid exposing the plates to sudden and  extreme temperature changes (e.g., from a freezer to a hot oven).

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Plates

Not sure what plates will make the best impression? Here are a few things to keep in mind when choosing your next set of commercial tableware.

Material Matters

Bone china offers elegance and  strength, porcelain is a durable all-rounder, and  stoneware provides a rustic, earthy feel. Choose a material that matches your brand and  can handle the heat of your kitchen.

Shape & Style

A coupe plate (rimless) offers a modern canvas for creative plating. A wide-rimmed plate frames the food classically. Think about the type of dishes you serve and  which style will show them off best.

Durability for Service

Look for features like chip-resistant edges and  a vitrified glaze. A plate designed for commercial use will withstand repeated washing and  daily knocks much better than standard domestic tableware.

Colour and  Aesthetics

White is timeless, but a coloured or patterned plate like this crushed velvet finish copper plate can become a signature part of your brand identity, making your food more memorable and  shareable.

Everyday Practicality

Is it stackable? Does it fit in your dishwasher? Is it microwave safe? These practical questions are vital for ensuring smooth service day in, day out.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is bone china strong enough for a busy restaurant?

A: Absolutely. Fine bone china is the strongest and  most chip-resistant ceramic available, making it an excellent and  surprisingly durable choice for commercial use.

Q: What is a 'coupe' style plate?

A: A coupe plate has a gentle, continuous curve without a separate rim. This provides a clean, modern look and  gives you more surface area for plating.

Q: Is the copper finish a real metal coating that will tarnish?

A: No, it's a specially formulated, durable glaze that creates the metallic copper effect. It won't tarnish and  is what makes the plate completely microwave and  dishwasher safe.

Q: Will the pattern and  colour fade after many dishwasher cycles?

A: These plates are designed for the rigours of commercial dishwashing. The decoration is applied to be highly resistant to fading, ensuring a long-lasting vibrant look.

Q: How many plates are included in one purchase?

A: This product, SKU FE107, is sold as a pack containing six 165mm coupe plates.

Q: What kind of dishes work best on a 165mm plate?

A: This size is incredibly versatile. It's ideal for serving starters, side dishes, bread, or showcasing a signature dessert.

Q: Can these plates be stacked safely?

A: Yes, they are designed to be stackable. For maximum protection against scratching over time, you can use thin plate protectors between each one in the stack.

Q: Is the 'crushed velvet' finish actually textured?

A: Yes, the glaze has a subtle, intricate texture that mimics the look and  feel of crushed velvet fabric, adding a unique tactile element to the plate.

More Than Just a Pretty Plate: The Strength of Fine Bone China

When you hear 'fine bone china', you might think of delicate teacups that need to be handled with extreme care. But for a commercial kitchen, the opposite is true. The 'bone' in the name refers to bone ash, an ingredient that makes this Royal Crown Derby FE107 plate incredibly strong and  chip-resistant. In fact, it's the toughest type of porcelain you can get.

Think of it like the difference between a standard pane of glass and  the toughened glass in your car's windscreen. While it looks more refined and  is lighter than clunky earthenware, its internal structure is far more durable and  resilient to the knocks and  scrapes of a busy service. This means you get a plate that looks stunningly elegant but performs like a workhorse, making it a smart, long-lasting investment for any professional setting.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Boutique Hotels: Perfect for elevating an exclusive afternoon tea service or for luxurious in-room dining presentations.
  • Fine Dining Restaurants: An ideal canvas for presenting signature appetisers or desserts that deserve a dramatic backdrop.
  • Artisan Patisseries: To showcase delicate, high-value cakes and  pastries on a surface that reflects their quality.
  • Upmarket Cocktail Bars: Use them to serve premium bar snacks, ensuring every detail of the customer experience is sophisticated.
