Product Description
The William Edwards Quanta collection is a range of fine dining tableware produced in bone china with a 47% bone ash content. These 300mm plates feature a geometric embossed surface with white-on-white print detailing, accented by copper mica elements that give each piece a subtle, layered texture. The result is a presentation plate that carries visual weight without relying on heavy colour or pattern — well suited to menus where the food itself is the focal point.
In a busy service environment, the practicalities matter as much as the aesthetics. The high bone ash content gives the china a degree of chip resistance that holds up better than standard earthenware or porcelain during the stacking, handling and washing cycles that come with regular covers. The scratch-resistant glaze helps maintain the plate's appearance over time, which is a genuine operational consideration when front-of-house standards are consistently high.
- Bone china construction offers a strong strength-to-weight ratio for front-of-house handling
- Scratch-resistant glaze helps retain presentation quality through repeated service cycles
- Dishwasher safe, reducing post-service handling time and care requirements
- Embossed geometric surface adds visual depth without relying on applied colour
- Copper mica detailing provides a point of distinction for premium covers
These plates are best suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, private members' clubs and similar venues operating at the premium or fine dining end of the market. The 300mm format works well as a main course plate for plated presentation, though the visual character of the Quanta range makes it equally suited to a starter or sharing plate where the tableware itself forms part of the guest experience. Smaller formats within the Quanta range are available for operators looking to build a coordinated table setting.
If you are building out a new table scheme or need guidance on quantities for your covers and washing cycles, our team is happy to talk through what works in practice.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The bone china body with its 47% bone ash content, combined with a scratch-resistant glaze, is designed to withstand the repeated thermal and mechanical cycles of commercial dishwashers. That said, fine china of this quality benefits from appropriate rack loading and avoiding abrasive cleaning agents to maintain the copper mica detailing over time.
- A 300mm plate works well for plated main courses where there is space around the food — a common presentation approach in fine dining and tasting menu formats. If your kitchen plates generously or works with larger proteins, it is worth considering whether a slightly larger format would suit your style better, and whether that sits within the Quanta range.
- The Quanta collection has a distinct aesthetic, so mixing it with collections that carry strong colour or very different surface treatments requires care. It tends to sit well alongside understated or neutral pieces. If you are building a coordinated table scheme across multiple pieces, it is worth speaking with us to review how the collections work together in practice.
