Churchill Studio Prints Raku Coupe Plate Garnet Orange 165mm (Pack of 12)

The Churchill Studio Prints Raku coupe plate in garnet orange is a 165mm vitrified ceramic plate from Churchill's Studio Prints range. Each plate carries a kiln-reactive crazed glaze finish, which means no two plates are identical — the firing process produces subtle natural variation in the surface pattern, giving the range a handcrafted character that works well in settings where presentation is part of the experience.

At this size, the plate sits comfortably in the starter and dessert course. The coupe profile — no rim, gently sloping sides — keeps the focus on the food and gives chefs a clean canvas for plating. Despite the plate's modest footprint, the super vitrified ceramic construction gives it a robustness that holds up well through continuous dishwasher cycling and the knocks of a busy pass.

Key practical points for kitchen and front-of-house teams:

• Suitable for dishwasher, oven, and microwave use
• Kiln-reactive glaze produces natural surface variation across the set
• Super vitrified ceramic resists chipping and crazing in service
• Backed by a five-year edge chip warranty from Churchill
• Sold in packs of 12 — practical for restaurant par levels

As a purely front-of-house item, there are no installation or utility requirements to consider. It is worth noting that because each plate is individually kiln-fired, the garnet orange glaze tone will show natural variation between pieces — this is a characteristic of the range rather than a quality inconsistency, and most operators find it adds to the aesthetic. If you require a more uniform, consistent colour across a large cover count, a glazed porcelain alternative from a standard range may be more suitable.

This plate is well suited to restaurants, bistros, and hotel dining rooms where a distinctive, tactile tableware aesthetic is part of the overall guest experience. It works particularly well in smaller, independently run operations or chef-led venues where the individuality of the glaze is an advantage. For high-volume contract or institutional catering where uniformity and volume replacement are priorities, a standard vitrified range may be a more practical fit.
