The Off Grid Studio Fire range is a collaboration with potter Sam Gordon, developed to bring the character of wood-fired, hand-crafted ceramics into a format that works reliably in commercial service. Each piece is intentionally reactive in its finish, meaning no two plates carry identical colouring, highlights, or edge detail. The Smoke colourway sits in muted, earthy tones that read well against a range of food styles and table settings.

In practical terms, these are 160mm deep coupe plates — a useful size for starters, small plates, sharing portions, or desserts. The deep coupe profile gives a modest well, which helps contain dressings and sauces without the formality of a traditional rimmed plate. Supplied in a pack of 24, the quantity suits a section or a small to mid-sized restaurant looking to build or extend a cover set.

The porcelain body is finished with a semi-matte glaze that contributes to the hand-crafted aesthetic while remaining practical for day-to-day use. Key operational properties include:

  • Dishwasher safe, supporting standard back-of-house cleaning routines
  • Suitable for microwave, oven, and freezer use, giving flexibility across prep and service
  • Porcelain construction helps resist staining, chipping, and everyday wear
  • Reactive glaze means natural variation between pieces — appropriate for the style, worth noting for operators who prefer uniformity

The 160mm diameter is well suited to small plate or starter use. Operators running larger main course covers may want to consider whether a larger format within the Fire range would better fit their needs.

If you are building a full cover set from the Off Grid Studio collection or need guidance on quantities for your service volume, the team is happy to help you work through it.

Frequently asked questions

How does the reactive glaze affect consistency across a matched cover set?

Reactive glazes are designed to vary — each plate will show slightly different tonal shifts, highlights, and edge detail. This is intentional to the Off Grid Studio aesthetic and reads well in casual or contemporary dining environments. Operators who require close uniformity across covers may find this range less suitable than a standard production-glaze alternative.

Is the 160mm size appropriate for main courses or is it better suited to starters and small plates?

At 160mm, this plate is most practical for starters, desserts, small plates, or sharing portions. For main course use, a larger diameter within the Fire range would typically be more appropriate, and it is worth confirming plate sizes against your portion sizes before committing to a full cover set.

Can these plates go through a commercial rack or conveyor dishwasher without damaging the glaze finish?

Yes, the plates are rated as dishwasher safe and are intended for commercial use. The semi-matte glaze is part of the fired porcelain body rather than a surface coating, so it is not vulnerable to the stripping effect that can affect some decorative finishes over time.
