Product Description
The Churchill Buckingham Sumatra plate is a 165mm porcelain side or starter plate finished with a tropical floral print and the characteristic embossed rim of the Buckingham shape. It is sold in packs of 24, which suits restaurant and café operations looking to build or extend a coordinated table setting.
Churchill's Buckingham range is a well-established choice in the UK hospitality sector, and the Sumatra pattern sits comfortably in settings that want something with visual character without straying into overly formal tableware. The durable glaze produces a smooth, even surface that presents food cleanly and wipes down easily during service.
From an operational standpoint, the porcelain construction handles the rigours of a busy pass and commercial dishwasher cycle reliably. The 5-year edge chip warranty from Churchill reflects the quality standard built into the range, which is a meaningful indicator for operators managing high-turnover covers.
- Consistent tropical floral pattern across the pack for cohesive table presentation
- Embossed Buckingham rim adds definition without complicating stacking or storage
- Smooth glazed surface makes cleaning straightforward, even after heavy service
- Porcelain construction suited to commercial dishwasher use
The 165mm size works well as a side plate, bread plate, or for smaller starter portions. Operators needing a larger plate for mains or a smaller plate for canapé service will find alternatives within the broader Buckingham Sumatra range.
If you are building out a full Sumatra table setting or need guidance on quantities for your anticipated covers, the team are happy to talk it through before you place an order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- At 165mm this plate is best suited to side portions, bread, or smaller starter presentations rather than full main courses. Operators looking for a main plate within the Buckingham Sumatra range should look at the larger diameter options available.
- Churchill's Buckingham range is produced for commercial hospitality use, and the glaze is designed to withstand repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. As with any printed tableware, following the manufacturer's recommended wash temperature and avoiding harsh abrasive chemicals will extend the life of the pattern.
- A general starting point for tableware planning is to hold two to three times your seated cover count to allow for items in use, in the wash cycle, and in reserve. For a 40-cover restaurant, two packs of 24 would be a realistic minimum — though high-turnover operations or venues running multiple sittings may want additional stock. It is worth talking through your service model before ordering.
