Royal Bone China Ascot Wide Rim Flat Plate 175mm (Pack of 12)

The Royal Bone China Ascot Wide Rim Flat Profile Plate is a 175mm side or starter plate designed for formal dining environments where presentation and serviceability both matter. It sits within the broader Ascot range, which uses traditional bone china construction throughout.

Bone china carries a practical advantage in table service settings: at 210g per plate, it is noticeably lighter than equivalent porcelain or stoneware pieces, which makes a real difference when waiting staff are clearing or carrying multiple covers during a busy service. Despite that lighter weight, bone china is generally more durable in day-to-day service than standard porcelain, offering better resistance to chipping under regular use.

The flat profile on this particular plate sets it apart from the classic Ascot wide rim shape. The lower, more contemporary profile gives greater flexibility in plating style and suits modern presentation techniques more naturally than a deeper, more traditional wide rim form.

• Lightweight construction supports efficient multi-plate carrying during service
• Wide rim provides a defined canvas for structured, formal plating
• Flat profile suits contemporary presentation styles alongside traditional fine dining
• Bone china finish reads as appropriately high-end in hotel and banqueting environments
• Available in a pack of 12, practical for building or topping up cover sets

This plate is well suited to hotels, restaurants, and banqueting operations running formal table service. The 175mm diameter positions it as a side plate, bread plate, or starter course plate depending on the menu format. For operations needing a main course plate or a different rim profile, other sizes and shapes are available within the Ascot range.
