£198.00(£237.60 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Fire collection from Steelite's Off Grid Studio is designed by potter Sam Gordon to replicate the appearance of wood-fired ceramics — a process where unpredictable kiln conditions naturally produce variation in colour, surface texture and edge character. Each piece in the range is intentionally reactive, meaning no two items are identical. The result is a tableware range that reads as genuinely hand-crafted on the pass, even at volume.
These 280mm presentation plates in the Smoke colourway are well suited to restaurants and casual dining operations where plate presentation forms part of the overall guest experience. The semi-matte glaze and organic edge detailing work particularly well with small plates, sharing dishes and modern bistro-style menus where the tableware is expected to complement the food rather than disappear beneath it.
Despite the artisan aesthetic, these plates are built for the rigours of professional service. The porcelain body is designed to resist chipping, staining and the general wear that comes with high-turnover covers and commercial dishwasher cycles. They move from freezer to oven to microwave without issue, which keeps prep and plating flexible during service.
- Durable porcelain construction resists chips and staining under regular commercial use
- Suitable for dishwasher, microwave, oven and freezer — practical across the full service cycle
- Reactive glaze finish ensures genuine variation between pieces for an authentic, hand-crafted look
- 280mm diameter suits sharing plates, starters and modern small-plate presentations
- Supplied in a pack of 12, practical for consistent table covers or staged rollout
Supplied in packs of 12, these plates are practical for operators building a consistent front-of-house look or supplementing an existing Fire collection. If you're unsure whether the 280mm size or the Smoke colourway is the right fit for your menu format and cover count, we're happy to talk it through before you order.
Frequently asked questions
Are these plates practical for high-volume covers or better suited to smaller operations?
The porcelain body and dishwasher-safe construction make them suitable for regular commercial use across a range of cover volumes. That said, operators running very high-turnover services may want to factor in the cost of replacement over time, as with any reactive-glaze tableware where visual consistency across a large fleet matters.
Does the reactive glaze cause noticeable variation between plates in the same pack?
Yes — intentionally so. The reactive glaze means each piece will show subtle differences in colour tone and surface character, which is central to the design. For most operators this reads as part of the aesthetic, but if a highly uniform tableware look is a requirement for your front-of-house, this range may not be the best fit.
Can these plates go directly from the freezer or oven to the pass during service?
Yes, the plates are rated for freezer, oven and microwave use, which makes them practical for operations where pre-plated or pre-portioned dishes move through different temperature stages before reaching the guest. As with all ceramic tableware, avoid sudden extreme temperature changes where possible to maintain longevity.
