Product Description
The Olympia Canvas Concave Plate is a 270mm stoneware plate finished in a blue granite colourway with a reactive glaze. Because the glaze responds to heat during firing, each piece carries slight natural variation in tone and texture, meaning no two plates are identical. The unglazed rim is a deliberate design choice that frames plated food cleanly and gives the piece a considered, contemporary feel without drawing attention away from the dish itself.
In a busy restaurant or café environment, tableware takes considerable punishment. Stoneware at this weight — each plate comes in at 870g — offers a reassuring solidity that lighter porcelain alternatives can lack, and holds up well to the daily cycle of service, clearing, and commercial dishwashing. The concave profile gives a useful depth for sauced or composed dishes without the plate reading as a bowl.
Practically, this plate works well across a range of service styles:
- Reactive glaze creates natural variation across pieces, reducing the uniformity of a mass-produced look
- Unglazed rim provides a clean visual border that keeps the focus on the food
- Concave profile suits sauced, garnished, or composed plating styles
- Blue granite colourway mixes with other Canvas colourways and shapes within the same collection
- Supplied in a pack of six, practical for building or topping up covers
As with all stoneware, it is worth noting that the material is heavier than fine china or porcelain, which can be a consideration for front-of-house staff during long service periods. The reactive glaze, while durable, should be assessed against your specific dishwasher chemistry if you use particularly aggressive commercial detergents.
This plate is well suited to independent restaurants, bistros, and cafés looking to add visual character to their table settings without committing to a fully bespoke crockery range. The Canvas collection is broad enough to mix shapes and tones, which gives operators flexibility as covers grow or menus evolve. If you are outfitting a high-volume operation and need to understand durability expectations at scale, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Stoneware is generally compatible with commercial dishwashers, but the longevity of the reactive glaze can be affected by very aggressive detergents used in high-temperature machines. It is worth checking with your chemical supplier if you run a particularly intensive wash programme.
- Yes — the Canvas range is designed so that different colourways and shapes work together on the same table. The blue granite tone pairs well with neutral and earthy Canvas options, which can be useful if you want variety across a menu or between courses.
- That depends on your covers, table turns, and how quickly your dishwash cycle returns clean plates to service. As a general guide, most operators allow for two to three times their seated cover count to keep service running smoothly — so a 30-cover restaurant might consider 10 to 15 packs as a starting point. If you want help working through the numbers for your operation, we are happy to advise.
