  • Pros: The unique texture and  finish elevate it far beyond standard white tableware.
  • Cons: As a premium piece, it demands careful handling to maintain its pristine look.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Lavender House, a popular patisserie in Bath, decided to overhaul its entire tableware collection to better reflect its artisanal cakes and  pastries. They chose the Royal Crown Derby Charnwood collection to provide a more luxurious customer experience that matched the quality of their food.

"Our customers immediately noticed the change. The saucers feel substantial and  the crushed velvet design is a real talking point. It just makes the whole experience feel more special, which is exactly what we wanted to achieve."

Thomas Evans – Proprietor

The upgrade contributed to a significant increase in social media tags and  mentions, particularly for their flagship Afternoon Tea service.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, carefully unpack each saucer and  inspect for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
  • Give the set a thorough wash in warm, soapy water or run them through a dishwasher cycle before their first use.
  • Ensure your cup sets match the 150mm diameter for a stable, professional fit.

Keeping It Going

  • When loading into a dishwasher, stack carefully to prevent items from knocking against each other, which can cause chipping.
  • While durable, avoid extreme and  sudden temperature changes, such as moving directly from a freezer to hot water.
  • Handle with care to prevent dropping on hard surfaces, as with any high-quality ceramic.
  • For stubborn tea or coffee stains, a gentle paste of bicarbonate of soda and  water can be used before washing.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Crockery

Not sure what fits best for your establishment? Picking the right tableware is about balancing looks, budget, and  durability. Here are a few tips to help you decide.

Material Matters

Bone china offers a premium, lightweight feel, while porcelain is a durable all-rounder and  stoneware provides a rustic look. Choose based on your brand's image.

Durability is Key

Look for chip-resistant edges and  confirmation that the items are dishwasher and  microwave safe, essential for any busy commercial kitchen.

Consider Your Brand

Your crockery is part of your brand's story. A unique design, like this Charnwood saucer, can make your service memorable and  justify premium pricing.

Stackability and  Storage

Check that items stack neatly and  securely. Poorly designed tableware can take up valuable shelf space and  be more prone to breakage.

Think in Collections

When buying new pieces, consider what other items are available in the range. It's always good to have the option to add matching teacups, plates, or bowls later on.
