Product Description
The Olympia Ochre flat plate is a porcelain dinner plate finished in a warm metallic bronze-effect glaze with a deliberately imperfect, handmade appearance. The slightly irregular form gives each plate a crafted quality that sits well on contemporary and rustic-style table settings, without the uniformity of standard white crockery.
In service, the plates perform as you would expect from porcelain tableware — durable enough for everyday restaurant use, suitable for the dishwasher, and consistent enough to mix and match across a table without looking mismatched. The ochre glaze holds its character under regular commercial washing cycles, though as with all reactive and effect glazes, care should be taken to follow the manufacturer's guidance on detergent type and temperature to preserve the finish over time.
Practical points worth considering before ordering:
- Reactive-effect glazes can show minor variation between pieces — this is intentional, not a defect
- Suitable for dishwasher use under normal commercial conditions
- Supplied in packs of six, making it straightforward to build up cover numbers incrementally
- The 260mm diameter is a practical size for main course plating across most menu styles
These plates are well suited to independent restaurants, boutique hotels, and café-bistro settings where the table aesthetic is part of the overall guest experience. They work particularly well where operators are moving away from plain white crockery but want something that remains versatile across different dishes. For higher-volume or more formal operations, a heavier-weight alternative from the broader tableware range may be worth considering.
If you're building out a full table setting or want to check compatibility with other pieces in the Ochre range, the team is happy to help you put together a coherent cover.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Reactive and metallic-effect glazes can be more sensitive to harsh detergents and high wash temperatures than plain white crockery. Under normal commercial dishwasher conditions with appropriate detergents, the finish holds well, but it's worth following Olympia's care guidance to get the best longevity from the glaze.
- That depends on your cover count, turnaround speed, and dishwasher cycle time. As a practical starting point, most operators running a sit-down service aim for at least two to three times their seated cover count in plates to allow for washing cycles and breakage. The pack-of-six format makes it easy to scale up in manageable quantities.
- Yes — the Ochre range is designed to work as a cohesive collection, so flat plates, bowls, and coupe pieces share the same glaze character and colour palette. Minor variation between individual pieces is part of the handmade aesthetic rather than an inconsistency. If you're building a full table setting, it's worth checking availability across the range before committing to quantities.
