Price Match

The Dudson Makers Urban Nova plate is a 279mm flat plate finished in Steel Grey, supplied in packs of twelve. It forms part of the Urban range, which draws on the textures and tones of industrial and urban environments to produce tableware with a distinctly contemporary feel. The plate is manufactured from vitrified fine china and decorated under a semi-matte glaze, giving it a tactile, muted surface that sits somewhere between the raw and the refined.

In service, vitrified fine china offers a practical balance of durability and presentation quality. The material resists chipping better than standard earthenware and holds up well under the thermal stresses of commercial dishwashers, making it a reasonable choice for operations running multiple covers each day. The semi-matte glaze finish is applied under firing rather than on top, which helps it maintain its appearance over repeated wash cycles without the surface dulling unevenly.

The Urban range is well suited to venues where the interior aesthetic leans towards exposed materials, neutral palettes, or an industrial-influenced look — casual dining restaurants, contemporary cafés, bar kitchens, and hotel food and beverage outlets. The Steel Grey colourway in particular works well against both natural wood and dark slate or stone table surfaces.

A few practical points worth noting: as with all semi-matte glazed ware, the surface may show cutlery marks over time more readily than a high-gloss alternative. This is a characteristic of the finish rather than a fault, and many operators find it adds to the aged aesthetic of the range. If your operation requires a higher-gloss finish for easier surface maintenance, a standard vitrified white or bright-glazed alternative may be more appropriate.

If you are building a full cover or coordinating across multiple plate sizes and serving pieces, it is worth speaking to us before placing an order — we can advise on what else is available within the Urban range to ensure everything works together on the table.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Urban Nova plate suitable for use in a commercial dishwasher?

Yes. Vitrified fine china is manufactured to withstand the temperatures and detergents used in commercial dishwashers. The under-glaze decoration also makes it more resistant to fading or surface degradation than on-glaze alternatives, though as with all tableware, avoiding stacking excessive loads will extend service life.

Will the semi-matte glaze show cutlery marks over time?

Semi-matte glazed surfaces are more likely to show light cutlery marking than high-gloss alternatives — this is a characteristic of the finish rather than a manufacturing defect. Many operators in contemporary casual dining settings find this adds to the aesthetic of the range, but if surface mark resistance is a priority, a high-gloss vitrified plate may be a better fit for your operation.

Can the Urban Nova range be mixed with other plate sizes and serve pieces for a full table cover?

The Urban range includes a number of complementary pieces across different sizes and formats. If you are building a coordinated cover, it is worth confirming availability of companion pieces before committing to an order — feel free to get in touch and we can advise on what is currently available within the range.
