Maham Studio Spice Saffron Stacking Trays 127mm (12 Pack)
£74.79(£89.75 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Maham Studio Spice Saffron stacking trays are part of a vitrified stoneware collection designed by Maham Anjum and produced by Steelite. Each tray carries the aesthetic of hand-thrown terracotta — an unglazed exterior paired with a reactive coloured glaze on the interior — giving the finished piece a characterful, tactile quality that stands apart from standard commercial tableware.
Despite their artisan appearance, these trays are built to the standards expected of a commercial foodservice environment. Vitrified stoneware offers the durability and chip resistance necessary for everyday front-of-house use, and the stacking design supports practical storage and handling during service.
In practice, this format suits small bites, condiments, and sharing plates across a range of settings. The 127mm diameter works well for individual portions or as a complement to a wider table composition. The Saffron colourway adds warmth to a table setting without being overstated.
- Suitable for restaurant, hotel dining, and bar food service
- Stackable format aids storage and reduces handling time
- Reactive glaze interior gives each piece a subtly individual finish
- Vitrified stoneware construction supports commercial wash cycles
As with any reactive-glaze stoneware, variation between individual pieces is inherent to the production process — this is a characteristic of the range rather than a quality concern. Operators considering this collection for a large cover count should factor in stock depth to account for breakage over time.
If you'd like to discuss how this collection fits into a broader tableware scheme, or to talk through quantities for your site, the team is happy to help.
Frequently asked questions
Are these trays suitable for use in a commercial dishwasher?
Vitrified stoneware of this type is generally compatible with commercial glasswasher and dishwasher cycles, though sustained exposure to very high temperatures and harsh detergents can affect reactive glazes over time. It is worth reviewing Steelite's care guidelines for the specific collection before committing to a wash programme.
How much natural variation can I expect between individual pieces?
Because the interior glaze is reactive, each piece fires slightly differently, meaning colour and surface texture will vary from tray to tray. This is a deliberate characteristic of the range rather than a defect, but operators who require a highly uniform table setting should view a sample before placing a large order.
Is a 12-pack sufficient for a full restaurant cover, or should I order multiple packs?
That depends on your cover count, how the trays are being used — whether for every cover or as a shared table item — and your approach to buffer stock for breakage. For a medium-sized restaurant using them as a regular tableware component, most operators would want to hold additional packs in reserve. We can help you work through quantities if useful.
