Product Description
The Churchill Isla Footed Plate in Shale Grey is a 276mm main course plate from Churchill's coastal-inspired Isla range. The footed profile raises the plate slightly from the table surface, giving it a quiet visual distinction without making it awkward to handle, stack, or run through a commercial dishwasher. The dappled Shale Grey glaze sits naturally within earthy, coastal, or pared-back dining concepts, and is accommodating enough to work with most food presentations and plating styles.
Built to super vitrified construction, these plates are made to cope with the demands of commercial service — repeated machine washing, stacking in transport racks, and day-to-day handling by kitchen and front-of-house teams. Super vitrified bodies carry meaningfully better resistance to chipping and glaze crazing than standard earthenware, which matters when attrition rates are a real cost consideration. At 730g, the plate has a reassuring weight on the table without being cumbersome to carry in service.
- Footed profile adds table presence without compromising stackability
- Dappled Shale Grey finish suits natural, coastal, and contemporary dining concepts
- Super vitrified body resists chipping and crazing under repeated commercial use
- 730g weight gives substance on the table while remaining practical to carry
- Sold in packs of 12, supporting straightforward par level planning
These plates are well suited to restaurants, hotels, gastropubs, and event caterers where table presentation matters and a natural or coastal aesthetic fits the concept. When ordering, it is worth factoring in your full cover count plus a working reserve — breakage replacement is easier to manage when you have planned quantities from the outset. For operations running high daily covers, ordering conservatively often leads to unnecessary reorder costs.
If you are building a full place setting or matching pieces across the Isla range, the team are glad to help you work out what fits together and get your quantities right from the start.

Frequently Asked Questions
- As a general guide, most operators plan for at least one plate per cover plus a working reserve of around 20–25% to account for breakages and items in the wash cycle at any given time. For a 40-cover restaurant, starting with four or five packs and reassessing after the first few months of service is a practical approach.
- Yes. The super vitrified construction is specifically designed to handle repeated commercial machine washing. Super vitrified ware is more resistant to thermal shock and glaze crazing than standard ceramic, making it a practical choice where plates are cycled through a rack or conveyor washer multiple times a day.
- The foot is modest in height and does not significantly affect how the plates stack in a rack or on a shelf. In practice, most operators find the Isla footed plates handle and store in the same way as a standard flat-based plate, with no notable impact on storage density or transport stability.
