Product Description
The Churchill Stonecast Plume Ultramarine Chefs' Oblong Plate is a hand-decorated serving plate from Churchill's Stonecast Plume range. The Plume finish is produced using a layering technique that allows colour to interact and blend during application, resulting in a fluid, organic pattern that varies naturally across each piece. The ultramarine colourway gives the range a distinctive, rich tone that works well in contemporary dining settings.
Made from super vitrified porcelain, these plates are built to handle the demands of busy commercial service. Super vitrified porcelain is a denser, harder-wearing body than standard porcelain, which translates into better resistance to chipping at the rim and a longer usable life on pass and in the rack. At 838g per plate, the No.4 oblong has a reassuring weight and stability when plated dishes are carried at pace during service.
The oblong format makes these plates well suited to composed multi-element dishes, sharing boards, and modern plating styles where a rectangular canvas gives the kitchen more control over presentation. They are commonly used for starters, desserts, and sharing plates in restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and event catering operations.
- Hand-decorated finish adds visual character without requiring bespoke crockery budgets
- Super vitrified porcelain body resists chipping under regular commercial use
- Oblong format suits structured, multi-element plating
- Sold in boxes of 6, suitable for building stock incrementally
- Consistent ultramarine tone across the range supports cohesive table presentation
If you are specifying crockery across a full cover count or coordinating with other pieces in the Stonecast Plume range, the team is happy to help you work through quantities and format options before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Super vitrified porcelain is fired to a higher density than standard porcelain, making it more resistant to chipping and crazing under the stresses of daily commercial use — stacking, rack washing, and fast-paced service. It is a common choice for restaurants and contract catering operations where crockery takes significant handling over repeated sittings.
- Yes, the Plume effect is intentionally varied — the layering process means no two plates are identical. In practice, this is part of the range's character and is generally well received in restaurant settings. If absolute uniformity is a requirement for your operation, it is worth viewing samples before committing to a full stock order.
- The oblong format and size of the No.4 makes it most naturally suited to starters, desserts, and sharing plates rather than a primary main course cover. Many operators use it alongside a round main plate to give the menu a varied presentation across courses. If you are unsure which formats best support your menu style, the team can help you think through the options.
