Revolution Sandstone Plates | Coupe Plates | 152mm Stackable Design | Steelite VV1944

Q: Are these plates sold individually or in a set?

A: These Steelite VV1944 coupe plates are supplied in a convenient box of 12, making it easy to stock up your professional kitchen.

Q: What exactly is 'thermal shock resistance'?

A: It means the plate can withstand rapid temperature changes without cracking – for example, going from a hot lamp on the pass to having a cold item placed on it.

Q: Is the sandstone finish textured?

A: No, it's a completely smooth, glazed finish that has a speckled visual effect. This ensures it is 100% food-safe and  very easy to clean.

Q: How does the weight compare to cheaper ceramic plates?

A: As high-quality vitrified china, they have a reassuring weight that signals quality, but they are still designed for comfortable and  efficient handling by serving staff.

Q: Can I use serrated knives on them?

A: The glaze is exceptionally tough and  resistant to marks from standard cutlery. However, like any ceramic surface, constant heavy use of sharp, serrated knives could eventually leave a mark.

Q: Are there other matching items in this Revolution Sandstone range?

A: Yes, the Steelite Revolution range includes a wide variety of bowls, mugs, and  plates in different sizes so you can create a fully coordinated look across your entire service.

Q: What is the main advantage of a coupe-style plate?

A: The key benefit is the lack of a rim, which gives you a larger, uninterrupted canvas for plating. They also stack more compactly than many rimmed plates.

Q: Is the bottom of the plate glazed?

A: Like most high-quality commercial plates, they feature a polished, unglazed 'foot' which is designed to prevent scratching other plates when they are stacked.
