Choose between the 237x157mm, 262x203mm and 298x152mm sizes. Each plate carries a subtle metal-effect finish in jasper grey that varies naturally from piece to piece, the result of how the glaze responds during firing. The oblong format sits comfortably between a sharing plate and a composed individual dish, which gives front-of-house teams flexibility across different service styles without needing separate plateware for each.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSuper vitrified porcelain is a denser, harder-wearing material than standard porcelain, and it handles the daily demands of a commercial kitchen, including thermal cycling through the dishwasher, regular stacking and general handling, more reliably than lighter-bodied alternatives. The reactive glaze, while primarily decorative, also tends to hold its surface character better over time than printed or decal finishes, which is a practical consideration in operations running multiple dishwasher cycles per service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePractical points worth noting for operators:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReactive glaze produces natural variation across plates, which suits relaxed, contemporary dining aesthetics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuper vitrified porcelain construction withstands regular commercial dishwasher use reliably\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJasper grey complements a wide range of food colours and plating approaches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOblong shape works for individual plated courses and informal sharing presentations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree sizes, each sold in packs of 12, making it straightforward to build or extend a consistent cover count\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the glaze is reactive by nature, no two plates are exactly alike. This suits operations with a contemporary or informal dining identity, but it is worth considering if strict visual uniformity is a priority for your front of house. These plates are well suited to restaurants, bistros, wine bars, and similar mid-size operations. For very high-volume sites with large cover counts or more demanding handling environments, heavier-duty tableware options within Churchill's broader range may be worth looking at alongside this collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are putting together a full table setting or want to see how the Jasper Grey fits with other pieces in the Raku range, our team are glad to help you work through it before you commit to an order.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Churchill","offers":[{"title":"237x157mm","offer_id":46833557635389,"sku":"FD881","price":241.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"262x203mm","offer_id":58408849146238,"sku":"FD882","price":297.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"298x152mm","offer_id":58408849179006,"sku":"FD883","price":260.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1753\/9017\/products\/4f3039035a802d999baa19c9e4dff926.jpg?v=1692705452","url":"https:\/\/www.advantage-catering-equipment.co.uk\/products\/churchill-raku-jasper-grey-oblong-plates-pack-of-12","provider":"Advantage Catering Equipment","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
