The Aquamarine colourway brings an aged, artisan quality to the table that reads as deliberate rather than decorative.

Each plate is finished with a reactive glaze, meaning no two pieces come out of production looking identical — the worn, aged quality is inherent to the process rather than printed on. The result sits somewhere between rustic and contemporary, which gives it a versatility that works across a range of front-of-house settings without looking contrived.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is super vitrified porcelain, which is a denser and harder-wearing material than standard porcelain. In a commercial setting, where plates go through a dishwasher repeatedly every service, that extra density translates into better resistance to chipping and crazing over time.
