£288.00(£345.60 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Dudson Makers Collection Porto platter is a small rectangular serving piece finished in a distinctive blue mosaic-style glaze, drawn from the tradition of hand-painted Portuguese azulejo tiles. It sits within Dudson's Makers Collection range, which is designed to bring a craft, artisan feel to front-of-house presentation without sacrificing the durability expected of commercial tableware.
In practical terms, the Porto platter works well as a sharing plate, a small starter presentation, or an accompaniment piece — the organic rectangular form and decorative surface giving each cover a considered, individual quality that plain white alternatives simply don't offer. For operators running a menu where the visual story matters as much as the food itself, pieces like this can carry real value across a service.
As with all Dudson products, the range is manufactured to withstand the demands of a commercial environment — repeated dishwasher cycles, high-volume covers, and the general wear of a busy kitchen pass. The 12-pack format is practical for operators building or topping up a consistent set.
- Artisan mosaic-style Porto Blue glaze, visually consistent across the set
- Organic rectangular form suited to sharing plates and starter presentations
- Commercial-grade construction for repeated dishwasher use
- Sold in a 12-pack for practical stocking and set-building
- Part of the broader Makers Collection range for coordinated tableware
This platter is best suited to independent restaurants, bistros, and hospitality venues where tableware presentation forms part of the guest experience. It is a relatively compact piece; operators with larger sharing or main-course presentation requirements should consider the wider Makers Collection formats available in the range.
If you're building a full table setting or matching across courses, it's worth having a conversation with us — we can help you work out quantities and coordinate pieces across the collection.
Frequently asked questions
How well does the Porto Blue glaze hold up in a busy commercial dishwasher environment?
Dudson manufacture to commercial hospitality standards, so the Porto range is designed to withstand the temperatures and detergents used in commercial dishwashers. As with any decorative glaze, using the correct dishwasher chemistry and avoiding abrasive cleaning methods will help maintain the finish over time.
Is the 179mm size suitable for main course plating, or is it better suited to starters and sharing?
At 179mm, this is a relatively compact piece and sits most naturally as a starter plate, a small sharing plate, or an accompaniment dish. For main course plating the Makers Collection includes larger format options that would give chefs more working space.
Can I mix Porto pieces with other patterns in the Makers Collection for a varied table setting?
Yes — the Makers Collection is intentionally designed so that different patterns and forms within the range can sit together on the same table. This kind of curated, mixed approach is common in independent restaurants looking to create an individual aesthetic. If you're planning a mixed set, we're happy to advise on which combinations work well together.
