Price Match

The Dudson Makers Finca Sandstone Nova Plate is a 279mm vitrified fine china plate from the Makers Collection, finished in a semi-matte, hand-dipped glaze that produces the multi-tonal, worn texture characteristic of the Finca design. Each piece carries original makers marks on the reverse, a deliberate design detail that reinforces the handcrafted aesthetic of the range. Decoration is applied in-glaze rather than on-glaze, which is the more durable method for commercial use and significantly improves resistance to fading and surface wear in a professional wash environment.

In practical terms, vitrified fine china offers a good balance between the refined appearance expected in casual dining and contemporary restaurant settings and the robustness required for repeated commercial use. The Finca glaze finish is well suited to operators who want a tactile, artisan aesthetic on the plate without moving to stoneware or earthenware, which tend to be heavier and more prone to chipping at the rim. Plates are sold in packs of twelve, which suits standard ordering quantities for most operations.

Points worth considering before ordering:

  • In-glaze decoration provides strong resistance to commercial dishwasher cycles
  • Semi-matte glaze finish gives each piece a slightly individual character
  • Makers marks on the reverse are an intentional feature, not a quality variation
  • Vitrified fine china construction keeps weight manageable at 830g per plate
  • Sandstone finish suits earthy, natural, or rustic table presentations

This plate is well suited to casual dining, brasserie, and contemporary restaurant environments where the tableware is expected to contribute to the overall aesthetic of the dish presentation. It is less suited to formal fine dining settings where a brighter, more traditional white china finish is expected.

If you are building out a full cover or matching across a range of piece types, the Makers Finca collection extends across multiple plate sizes and serving pieces — it is worth confirming availability of the full set before committing to a particular quantity. The team are happy to talk through what works for your cover count and service style.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Finca Sandstone finish durable enough for daily commercial dishwasher use?

Yes. The decoration is applied in-glaze rather than on-glaze, which means it is bonded into the surface of the piece rather than sitting on top of it. This makes it significantly more resistant to the alkaline detergents and high temperatures used in commercial glasswashers and dishwashers. The semi-matte glaze finish may show water marks more readily than a high-gloss surface, so rinse aid dosing is worth checking if presentation is a priority.

What style of operation is the Makers Finca range best suited to?

The Finca design is primarily aimed at casual dining, brasserie, and modern bistro settings where an earthy, tactile aesthetic complements the food offering. It works particularly well alongside natural materials on the table — linen, wood, slate — and suits menus with a rustic or seasonal focus. It is less commonly used in formal or fine dining environments where a clean white or bone china finish is the norm.

Can I order individual plates rather than a full pack of 12?

This product is sold in packs of twelve as the standard unit, which is how Dudson supply the Makers range to the trade. If you need a smaller quantity — for example to test the aesthetic before a full cover commitment — it is worth contacting the team to discuss what options are available, as requirements vary and it is better to confirm before placing an order.
