Steelite Bead Truffle Plates 165mm (Pack of 12)

The Steelite Bead range is a well-established tableware collection built around a classic beaded rim profile. In the Truffle colourway — a warm, muted grey-tone glaze — the range takes on a quieter, more contemporary character that sits comfortably alongside both traditional and modern table settings. These 165mm plates are proportioned for use as side plates, bread plates, or smaller dessert presentations.

Vitrified china is the standard choice for busy food service environments for good reason. It fires at high temperature to produce a dense, low-absorption body that resists chipping, staining, and the repeated thermal cycling of commercial dishwashers. In day-to-day service this translates to crockery that holds its appearance across a full season of heavy use rather than showing wear within the first few months.

Practically, this plate works well across a range of settings:

• Side plate or bread plate cover for table d'hôte and à la carte service
• Sharing boards and small accompaniment presentations
• Dessert plating at smaller portion sizes
• Café and bistro all-day covers where a versatile side plate is needed throughout service

At 283.5g per plate the Bead is a considered weight — substantial enough to feel quality in the hand without being cumbersome for front-of-house staff handling multiple covers. Sold in packs of 12, quantities suit both initial range trials and ongoing stock replenishment.

If you are building out a full table setting and want to confirm the Bead Truffle range extends across the plate sizes, bowls, and serving pieces you need, the team is happy to walk through the full collection with you before you place an order.
