Product Description
The Churchill Stone Quartz Black Lotus plate is part of the Studio Prints Stone range, a collection designed to bring the aesthetic of hand-carved natural stonework to commercial tableware. The 228mm plate sits comfortably as a starter, side, or dessert plate and is finished in a deep black lotus colourway that works well with a broad range of plating styles.
Manufactured in the UK from super vitrified ceramic, these plates are built to withstand the demands of regular commercial service. Super vitrified ceramic offers greater chip resistance than standard ceramics, which matters in a busy kitchen environment where plates are handled at volume and pass through commercial dishwashers repeatedly throughout a service. At around 600g each, the plates have a considered weight that feels substantial in the hand without being impractical to carry in a full stack.
The Stone range is well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and event catering operations where presentation is important and tableware needs to hold up over time. The textured, stone-inspired surface finish adds visual depth to plated dishes without competing with the food, making it a practical choice for operators who want distinctive tableware that supports their front-of-house aesthetic rather than dominating it.
Plates are sold in packs of 12, which aligns with standard cover multiples and makes stock management straightforward. As with all tableware investments, it is worth considering service volume and breakage rates when deciding how many packs to hold in reserve.
If you are building or refreshing a tableware range and want to discuss quantities, mix-and-match options across the Stone collection, or suitability for your service style, the team is happy to help you think it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. Super vitrified ceramic is specifically formulated to withstand the higher temperatures and detergent concentrations used in commercial dishwashers. Over extended use, surface wear is significantly slower than with standard ceramic, though as with all tableware, periodic stock checks for chips or crazing are good practice.
- This depends on your cover count, service frequency, and how many courses use this plate size. As a general guide, operators typically hold two to three times their cover count in each plate size to allow for breakages, items in the wash cycle, and peak service periods. If you are unsure, we can help you work through the numbers based on your operation.
- The Studio Prints Stone range is designed with a coherent aesthetic across different colours and sizes, so mixing Black Lotus with other Stone colourways on the same table is a deliberate design option many operators use. It is worth seeing the pieces together before committing to a full order, and we can advise on combinations that work well in practice.
