Delivery Information

Price Match

These 260mm walled plates are part of Churchill's Vintage Prints Med Tiles collection, a range of tableware drawn from the aesthetic of antique Moorish tilework. The aquamarine colourway is applied using a reactive printing process, which means each piece carries subtle natural variation in tone and pattern — no two plates are identical. The walled profile gives the plate a defined rim, making it practical for presenting dishes with sauces, dressings, or loose accompaniments without spillage during plating or service.

Made from Churchill's finest vitrified ceramic, these plates are built to withstand the day-to-day demands of commercial hospitality service. Vitrified tableware is significantly denser and harder than standard ceramic, which translates to better resistance to chipping at the rim and crazing of the glaze over time — both common failure points in busy restaurant and café environments. The reactive aquamarine finish holds well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles without the fading that can affect less robustly fired decorative pieces.

  • Reactive glaze gives each plate a unique, individual appearance in service
  • Walled rim contains sauces and loose elements during plating and front-of-house service
  • Finest vitrified construction resists chipping and glaze crazing under commercial use
  • 260mm diameter suits main course and signature dish presentation
  • Pack of six supports practical batch restocking of front-of-house covers

These plates are well suited to restaurants, bistros, and hotel dining rooms where a distinctive, characterful table setting forms part of the guest experience. They work particularly well for operators presenting signature dishes or tasting menus, where individual variation in the plate itself contributes to the overall aesthetic. For venues requiring a higher plate count per pack or a different format within the range, other options in the Churchill Vintage Prints collection are worth considering.

If you're building a full table setting around the Med Tiles collection or working out quantities for a new opening, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently asked questions

Are these plates suitable for use in a commercial dishwasher?

Yes. Churchill's finest vitrified ceramic is specifically designed to withstand the high temperatures and detergents used in commercial glasswasher and dishwasher cycles. The reactive aquamarine glaze is robust enough to retain its finish through repeated use without significant fading or crazing, which is a common issue with lower-fired decorative tableware.

How does the reactive glaze affect consistency across a full table setting?

By design, the reactive printing process means each plate carries subtle variation in tone and pattern — this is intentional and part of the collection's aesthetic. In practice, plates from the same production batch will share a family resemblance, but operators running large covers should be aware that exact uniformity across every piece is not a feature of this range. It suits venues where a handcrafted, individual quality is part of the dining experience.

Is a pack of six sufficient for a restaurant opening, or should I order more?

Six plates per pack is practical for small restocking orders, but most operators opening a new venue will need to order multiple packs to cover their expected cover count, allow for breakage, and maintain a working float for dishwash cycles. A useful rule of thumb is to hold two to three times your peak seated cover count in stock — if you'd like help working out quantities for your specific operation, the team can advise.
