The Maham Studio Spice Sea Salt Deep Plate is part of a vitrified stoneware collection designed by chef and food writer Maham Anjum. The piece combines the visual character of hand-thrown terracotta — with an unglazed exterior and a coloured reactive glaze on the inside — with the practical durability that commercial tableware demands. The Sea Salt colourway gives the interior a soft, natural tone that works well with a wide range of plated food styles.

In practice, vitrified stoneware holds up well in the day-to-day demands of restaurant service: it resists chipping better than standard earthenware, tolerates repeated dishwasher cycles, and retains its appearance over time without the glaze crazing that can affect lower-fired alternatives. The reactive glaze means each piece carries a degree of natural variation, which suits informal and contemporary dining settings well.

This plate is well suited to a number of front-of-house applications:

  • Starter and sharing portions in restaurant or hotel dining
  • Small plates and bar snacks in casual dining or pub environments
  • Dessert presentation where a deeper profile is an advantage
  • Modern tabletop concepts where texture and tone are part of the aesthetic

As with all reactive-glaze stoneware, some colour variation between pieces is inherent to the production process and should be expected. This is a design characteristic rather than a quality issue, though it is worth bearing in mind if a highly uniform tabletop presentation is a priority. The plates are sold in boxes of 12, making it straightforward to build or top up a set for a given section or service format.

If you are building a full cover setting around the Maham Spice range or have questions about how it fits with your existing tableware, we are happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently asked questions

Is this plate suitable for use in a commercial dishwasher?

Yes. Vitrified stoneware is designed to withstand the temperatures and cycle frequency of commercial dishwashers. The reactive glaze finish is durable under regular machine washing, though as with all decorative tableware, avoiding harsh abrasive chemicals will help preserve its appearance over time.

Should I expect variation between individual plates in the same box?

Yes, and this is intentional. The reactive glaze process used on the Maham Spice collection produces natural variation in tone and finish from piece to piece. This is part of the design character rather than a defect. If your concept requires a highly uniform tabletop presentation, it is worth considering whether a standard glaze range would be a better fit.

What type of operation is this plate best suited to?

It works well in restaurants, hotels, and casual dining venues where the tabletop aesthetic is part of the dining experience. The deeper profile and 852ml capacity make it particularly useful for starters, sharing plates, and desserts. It is less suited to operations where a plain, highly standardised tableware look is the priority.
