Product Description
The Dudson Harvest Plum Coupe Plate is a 6.5 inch side or starter plate produced in England as part of Dudson's Harvest range — a collection built around the handcrafted, farm-to-table aesthetic that has become a fixture in contemporary casual dining. Each piece is made from Dudson's vitrified ceramic stoneware body and individually hand-glazed, meaning no two plates are entirely identical. A hand-finished sponged rim allows glaze to drip naturally during firing, and each piece carries a maker's mark on the reverse as a record of its handmade origin.
In service, the vitrified stoneware construction gives these plates the durability expected in a busy restaurant environment. The material resists chipping better than earthenware and holds up well through commercial dishwasher cycles, which matters when plates are turning over rapidly across a full dining room. The coupe profile — with its minimal rim — keeps the focus on the food and works well with rustic, modern British, or plant-forward menus where presentation style is part of the offer.
Practical considerations for operators:
- Handcrafted finish gives natural variation — not suited to operations requiring uniformity
- Sold in boxes of 12, appropriate for smaller openings or supplementing existing stock
- Vitrified stoneware body is dishwasher safe and resists staining in normal service
- Made in England by Dudson, a manufacturer with a long track record in commercial tableware
- The 6.5 inch size suits side plates, bread plates, amuse-bouche, or starter courses
The Harvest range is well suited to independent restaurants, gastropubs, farm-to-table concepts, and hotel dining rooms where a handcrafted, characterful table setting reinforces the wider brand. It is less appropriate where a highly consistent, uniform plate appearance is a priority — the individual variation is a feature of the range, not a quality deviation. For larger openings requiring greater quantities or a different colourway within the Harvest collection, it is worth discussing your full covers requirement before ordering.
If you are planning a new tableware specification or replacing existing stock, feel free to get in touch — we are happy to talk through quantities, complementary pieces, and whether this range fits your service style.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. Dudson's vitrified stoneware body is designed to withstand the temperatures and detergents used in commercial dishwashers. The range is widely used in restaurant environments where plates cycle through the wash multiple times per service.
- Quite a bit — and that is intentional. Each plate is individually hand-glazed and sponge-rimmed, so glaze coverage, drip patterns, and overall appearance will differ from piece to piece. This suits operations where a rustic, handcrafted table aesthetic is part of the offer, but it is worth bearing in mind if your brand requires a tightly uniform look.
- For a new opening, 12 pieces is unlikely to cover a full section on its own — most operators buying for a dining room will need to consider total covers, breakage allowance, and how quickly plates return from the wash during service. We are happy to help you work out a sensible opening quantity if you get in touch with your covers number.
