Churchill Stonecast Oval Plate Cornflower Blue 197x160mm Pack of 12

The Churchill Stonecast range is a well-established collection of vitrified ceramic tableware designed to replicate the look of hand-thrown pottery while meeting the durability demands of professional service environments. Each oval plate in this Cornflower Blue colourway is finished by hand — the colourwash applied with a brush, the rim worked with a sponge — which means no two pieces are identical. That variation is intentional, and it's part of what gives the range its appeal on the pass.

In practical terms, vitrified ceramic is a sensible choice for busy operations. It handles repeated commercial dishwasher cycles reliably and the material resists the kind of surface crazing that affects lower-fired alternatives over time. Churchill backs the rim on these plates with a five-year edge chip guarantee, which reflects confidence in the manufacturing quality and reduces the ongoing replacement cost that operators often absorb with cheaper tableware.

• Hand-applied colourwash gives each plate a distinct, characterful finish
• Vitrified ceramic construction suited to commercial dishwasher use
• Oval format works well for starter plates, sharing dishes, and plated mains
• Five-year edge chip warranty provides practical long-term cost confidence
• Consistent Cornflower Blue colourway across the wider Stonecast collection

The oval shape suits a range of plating styles and is commonly used for starters, fish courses, or as a secondary plate alongside round covers. If you're building a cohesive table setting, the Stonecast range spans multiple piece types in the same colourway, which makes it straightforward to extend or replace individual items over time.

If you're specifying tableware for a new opening or refreshing an existing cover, it's worth thinking through quantities, breakage rates, and how the colourway sits alongside your linen and glassware. We're happy to talk through what makes sense for your service style and volume.
