Product Description
These 260mm walled plates are part of Churchill's Vintage Prints Med Tiles collection, a range of tableware drawn from the aesthetic of antique Moorish tilework found across Mediterranean and North African cities. The aquamarine colourway is applied using a reactive printing process, which means each piece carries subtle natural variation in tone and pattern — no two plates are identical. The walled profile gives the plate a defined rim, making it practical for presenting dishes with sauces, dressings, or loose accompaniments without spillage.
Made from Churchill's finest vitrified ceramic, these plates are built to withstand the day-to-day demands of commercial hospitality service. Vitrified tableware is significantly denser and harder than standard ceramic, which translates to better resistance to chipping at the rim and crazing of the glaze over time — both common failure points in busy restaurant and café environments. The reactive aquamarine finish holds well through repeated dishwasher cycles without the fading that can affect less robustly fired decorative pieces.
- Reactive aquamarine glaze gives each plate a unique, individual appearance
- Walled profile contains sauces and loose elements during plating and service
- Finest vitrified construction resists chipping and glaze crazing under commercial use
- 260mm diameter suits main course and signature dish presentation
- Supplied in a pack of six, practical for batch restocking front-of-house
These plates are well suited to restaurants, bistros, and hotel dining rooms where a distinctive, characterful table setting is part of the guest experience. They work particularly well for operators presenting signature or tasting menu dishes where individual variation in the plate itself adds to the aesthetic. For venues requiring a larger format or a higher plate count per pack, other options within the Churchill Vintage Prints range are worth considering.
If you're building a full table setting around the Med Tiles collection or need guidance on quantities for a new opening, the team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. Churchill's finest vitrified ceramic is formulated for repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. The reactive aquamarine glaze is fired to withstand the temperatures and detergents used in commercial warewashing without significant fading or glaze degradation over normal service life.
- The variation in reactive glazing is subtle — differences in tone and pattern rather than colour — so a set of these plates reads as cohesive on the table whilst retaining individual character. Many operators find this particularly well suited to independent or concept restaurants where a handcrafted aesthetic is part of the dining experience.
- 260mm is a commonly used main course plate size in mid-range to fine dining settings, offering enough surface area for composed plating without excessive white space. If your menu involves larger portions or wider plate presentations, it is worth considering a larger format from within the range before ordering in volume.
