Dudson Makers Collection Porto Blue Coupe Bowls 220mm (Pack of 12)
£185.00(£222.00 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Dudson Makers Collection Porto coupe bowl is a decorative piece drawn from the visual tradition of Portuguese azulejo tilework — the hand-painted, geometric tiles found throughout Portuguese architecture and interiors. The Porto pattern translates that mosaic quality into a tableware format, producing a bowl that carries a clear sense of craft and place without relying on novelty or trend.
In service, these bowls work well wherever a kitchen wants to add visual character to the table without introducing a fragile or high-maintenance piece. The coupe profile — a broad, shallow form with a minimal rim — suits sharing dishes, composed salads, pasta, and dessert presentations equally. At 220mm, the bowl is a practical size for a generous starter or a lighter main portion.
The Makers Collection range is produced by Dudson, a long-established UK manufacturer with a reputation for producing vitrified hotelware that holds up in professional environments. The Porto pattern is applied in a way that resists fading through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles, which matters in any operation running a high daily cover count.
This listing is supplied as a pack of twelve, which is a useful quantity for a smaller independent restaurant or café building a patterned tableware set, or for supplementing an existing collection. For operations covering a larger number of covers, multiple packs are straightforward to order.
If you are considering mixing Porto with other pieces from the Makers Collection, or want to discuss how patterned tableware performs alongside plainer plateware in a particular setting, we are happy to talk it through.
Frequently asked questions
Are these bowls suitable for use in a commercial dishwasher?
Yes. Dudson's vitrified hotelware is manufactured to withstand the thermal and chemical demands of commercial glasswashers and dishwashers. The Porto pattern is applied in a way that is designed to hold up through high-cycle daily use, though as with any patterned piece, avoiding prolonged contact with heavily abrasive cleaning agents will help maintain the finish over time.
How many packs would a typical restaurant need to open with?
A useful rule of thumb for coupe bowls is to hold two to two-and-a-half times your seated cover count, to allow for items in use, in the wash, and breakage reserves. A 40-cover restaurant would typically want at least two to three packs as a working baseline, with additional stock held depending on service pace and wash cycle frequency.
Can Porto bowls be used alongside plainer plateware from the same collection?
The Makers Collection is designed with this kind of mixing in mind — pairing a patterned bowl with a plainer plate or board is a common approach in casual dining and independent restaurants. If you want to discuss how the Porto pieces sit alongside other Dudson lines in a broader table scheme, we are happy to advise.
