Churchill Bamboo Mist Plates 170mm (Pack of 12)

The Churchill Bamboo Mist plate is a 170mm side or starter plate finished in a soft grey-mist glaze with a raised bamboo stem pattern running across the surface. It is part of Churchill's Bamboo range, which draws on natural textures to create a calm, contemporary table setting. The plates are manufactured in super vitrified ceramic, a material chosen specifically for the demands of commercial foodservice rather than domestic use.

In a busy hospitality environment, tableware takes a great deal of punishment — repeated dishwasher cycles, stacking, and the general wear of high-volume covers. Super vitrified ceramic is considerably denser and harder than standard earthenware, making it better suited to resist chipping and crazing over time. Churchill backs this up with a five-year edge chip warranty, which gives operators a reasonable level of assurance when purchasing for regular service use.

From a practical standpoint, this plate works well as part of a layered table setting:

• Suitable for dishwasher and microwave use, fitting into standard kitchen workflows
• The 170mm diameter suits side plates, bread plates, and smaller starter portions
• The mist glaze complements both white and earthy tableware palettes
• Super vitrified construction reduces replacement frequency compared with lighter ceramics
• Supplied in packs of 12, practical for building up cover counts incrementally

At 170mm this is not a main course plate, and operators planning to use it as a primary dining plate for full portions should consider a larger diameter from the same Bamboo range. It is best suited to casual dining, café settings, bistros, and hotels using the plate for side or starter courses.
