Churchill Stonecast Raw Lotus Black Plate 254mm (Pack of 12)

The Churchill Stonecast Raw Lotus plate is a 254mm side or starter plate finished in a semi-matte vellum glaze with an earthy black tone. It forms part of Churchill's Stonecast Raw collection, which draws on organic textures and natural materials to create a tactile, understated look that suits contemporary informal dining as well as more considered plated presentations.

Made from super vitrified china, these plates are built for the demands of regular commercial service. Super vitrified construction gives improved resistance to chipping and cracking compared to standard porcelain, which matters in a busy restaurant or hotel environment where plates are handled repeatedly throughout each service and cycled through commercial dishwashers daily.

The semi-matte glaze gives the range its distinctive feel but does require some care in stacking and storage. Like all textured or matte-glazed tableware, surface marks can appear over time if plates are stacked without care, and some operators choose to use plate separators in high-turnover environments to preserve the finish.

• Suits contemporary casual dining, bistro, and hotel table settings
• Practical 254mm sizing works well as a side, bread, or starter plate
• Super vitrified body offers reliable durability in commercial use

This plate is well suited to independent restaurants, hotel restaurants, and hospitality venues looking to introduce a more organic, tactile aesthetic to their table presentation. The 254mm size works as a versatile secondary plate across most cover styles. Operators running larger services or requiring a full table setting in this range may want to consider additional pieces across the Stonecast Raw collection to achieve a cohesive look.
