William Edwards Celestine Coupe Plates 210mm (12 Pack)
£234.00(£280.80 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The William Edwards Celestine coupe plate is a fine bone china piece designed for formal dining and upscale hospitality settings. The pattern combines precise pinstriping with a soft iridescent lustre that shifts subtly with the viewing angle, drawing the eye toward the centre of the plate. The result is a considered, restrained aesthetic rather than an overtly decorative one — well suited to contemporary fine dining, hotel restaurants, and private dining rooms where tableware is expected to complement the overall look of the cover.
Fine bone china offers a good balance of translucency and strength. The high-temperature firing process produces a hard glaze surface that holds up reasonably well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles, and the coupe profile — with its clean, rimless form — makes plating straightforward and consistent across a brigade. Stackability helps with storage efficiency in tight larder or pass environments.
- Fine bone china construction with hard glaze surface for durability in service
- Iridescent pinstripe pattern with shifting lustre at different viewing angles
- Coupe profile supports clean, consistent plating across the pass
- Microwave and dishwasher safe for practical kitchen use
- Stackable design for space-efficient storage between services
It is worth noting that fine bone china, while more chip-resistant than standard earthenware, still requires careful handling in high-volume operations. This pattern is better suited to table service environments than to high-turnover canteen or banqueting situations where attrition rates tend to be higher. Operators running larger covers may want to consider the pack quantity carefully when calculating opening stock and ongoing replacement requirements.
If you are specifying tableware across a new opening or refurbishment and would like to discuss quantities, pattern coordination, or suitability for your service style, we are happy to help before you commit to an order.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Celestine pattern suitable for high-volume banqueting service?
Fine bone china performs well in table service environments but tends to experience higher attrition in fast-turnaround banqueting operations where handling is more intensive. For high-volume banqueting, a more robust vitrified option may be worth considering alongside this pattern.
How should these plates be washed in a commercial kitchen?
The Celestine coupe plates are rated dishwasher safe, making them compatible with standard commercial rack or conveyor dishwashers. As with all fine bone china, avoiding harsh abrasive detergents and ensuring plates are properly racked rather than stacked loosely in the wash cycle will help maintain the glaze and pattern over time.
How do I calculate the right opening stock quantity for a new restaurant?
A general rule of thumb for table service operations is to hold three to four times your cover count to allow for items in service, in the wash cycle, and in reserve. If you are unsure how many packs to order for your opening, our team can help you work through the numbers based on your cover count and service style.
