Delivery Information

Price Match

The Dudson Makers Finca Sandstone Nova Plate is a 229mm side or starter plate produced in vitrified fine china, supplied in packs of twelve. It forms part of the Makers Finca collection, which is built around a multi-tonal surface print designed to suggest the texture and character of aged, rustic materials — worn stone, unfinished plaster, and weathered architectural surfaces.

Each plate carries a semi-matte, hand-dipped glaze finish that gives the collection its distinctive uneven tone. The decoration is applied in-glaze rather than on-glaze, which is a meaningful difference in a commercial setting. In-glaze decoration is fired into the surface, making it substantially more resistant to the abrasion and repeated mechanical washing cycles that strip printed or on-glaze decoration over time. The result is a plate that should hold its appearance through sustained professional use rather than fading quickly after launch.

Individual pieces carry intentional makers marks on the reverse — a deliberate design choice that supports the handcrafted aesthetic the collection is built around. In practical terms, operators using this range are typically those where the tableware itself contributes to the atmosphere: independent restaurants, bistros, farm-to-table concepts, and hospitality venues with a considered, informal aesthetic.

  • In-glaze decoration resists fading through heavy commercial dishwasher cycles
  • Vitrified fine china construction for durability under daily service conditions
  • Semi-matte hand-dipped glaze gives each piece individual character
  • Makers marks on the reverse reinforce the handcrafted narrative
  • 229mm format works well as a side plate, starter, or dessert course

If you are building a full table setting around this range or need to assess whether the format fits your current service style, our team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently asked questions

How does in-glaze decoration hold up in a busy commercial kitchen?

In-glaze decoration is fired into the china body rather than applied on top of the glaze, which makes it significantly more resistant to the abrasion and chemical exposure of daily commercial dishwasher cycles. It will not perform identically to plain white ware indefinitely, but it is substantially more durable than on-glaze printed alternatives, making it a practical choice for sites running multiple covers per service.

Is the 229mm plate the right size for a main course, or is it better suited to starters and sides?

At 229mm, this plate sits comfortably in the side plate and starter plate bracket. For main courses in most restaurant contexts, a larger format — typically 270mm or above — is more practical. If you are building a full cover from the Finca range, it is worth confirming which plate sizes are available across the collection to ensure you have a coherent set for each course.

Is the Finca Sandstone finish consistent across pieces, or does each plate look different?

The multi-tonal print and hand-dipped glaze process means there is natural variation between individual pieces, which is intentional to the collection's design. In practice, pieces within a pack will read as a cohesive set on the table while retaining subtle differences in tone — an effect that works in favour of the rustic, handcrafted aesthetic the range is built around.
