Product Description
The Dudson Makers Finca Sandstone espresso saucer is part of a tableware collection designed to bring a tactile, rustic character to café and restaurant coffee service. The Finca pattern uses a multi-tonal print to replicate the worn, uneven textures associated with aged interiors and natural materials, giving each piece a handcrafted appearance while being produced to consistent commercial standards. A semi-matte, hand-dipped glaze finish reinforces that artisan aesthetic, and each piece carries intentional makers' marks on the reverse — a deliberate design detail rather than a flaw.
Despite its artisan appearance, this saucer is constructed from vitrified fine china, which provides the robustness expected in busy café environments. Decoration is applied in-glaze, meaning the pattern is bonded into the surface during firing rather than applied on top — this significantly improves resistance to fading and marking under repeated commercial dishwashing cycles.
Operationally, the Finca range suits venues where presentation is considered as carefully as the coffee itself. The earthy sandstone tones complement both speciality espresso service and broader café menus, pairing well with a range of cup styles and table settings.
- In-glaze decoration resists fading through heavy dishwasher use
- Vitrified construction reduces chipping risk in daily service
- Consistent sizing supports neat stacking and storage
- Makers' marks on the reverse add authenticity without affecting service presentation
Sold in packs of 12, this saucer is practical for venues building or refreshing a coffee service set. For larger openings or high-turnover sites requiring greater quantities, it is worth discussing stock requirements before ordering.
If you are specifying tableware across a full café fit-out or want to discuss how the Finca collection works alongside other pieces in the range, the team is happy to help.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. The decoration is applied in-glaze, meaning it is fused into the surface during the firing process rather than printed on top. This makes it significantly more resistant to fading, dulling, and surface wear under repeated high-temperature commercial dishwasher cycles compared with on-glaze decorated tableware.
- A common starting point is two to three saucers per espresso cup in active service, allowing for items in the wash cycle and breakage over time. For a venue with a busy coffee trade, running with fewer can create pinch points during peak service. If you are specifying for a larger opening, it is worth discussing your cover numbers and service pattern before settling on a quantity.
- The makers' marks are an intentional design feature of the Dudson Makers collection, intended to give each piece an individual, handcrafted character. There will be natural variation between pieces — this is by design rather than a quality inconsistency, and it forms part of the aesthetic of the Finca range.
