Product Description
The Dudson Makers Finca Limestone Nova Plate is a 229mm side or starter plate from the Makers Collection, produced in vitrified fine china. The Finca design uses a multi-tonal printed finish that references worn stone textures and rustic interior surfaces, giving each piece a distinctive, handcrafted character. A semi-matte, hand-dipped glaze is applied to the exterior, and each piece carries original makers marks on the reverse — intentional details that reinforce the artisan aesthetic of the range.
Despite its craft appearance, the collection is built for professional use. The decoration is applied in-glaze rather than on-glaze, which means the printed finish is fused into the surface during firing rather than sitting on top of it. In practical terms, this makes the pattern significantly more resistant to the abrasion, chemical exposure, and repeated high-temperature dishwasher cycles that commercial tableware endures in daily service.
Vitrified fine china offers a good balance of durability and presentation quality for foodservice environments. It is less porous than earthenware, holds up reasonably well to the knocks of a busy pass, and maintains a consistent appearance across a matched set over time. The 229mm format is a practical size for starters, sides, or smaller sharing portions, and the plates are sold in packs of twelve, which suits batch replacement or building out cover numbers without ordering more than required.
This plate is well suited to restaurants, boutique hotels, and food-led venues where the visual identity of the table matters as much as operational practicality. The Finca range sits at the decorative end of the Makers Collection, so it works best where the rustic, textural aesthetic fits the overall room and menu concept. If your operation requires a plainer, more versatile profile, other formats within the wider collection may be worth considering.
If you are building a full cover spec or mixing plates across a range, the team is happy to talk through quantities, formats, and how the Finca aesthetic sits alongside other tableware in your current setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — the decoration is applied in-glaze, meaning it is fired into the surface of the china rather than applied on top. This makes it considerably more resistant to the abrasion and chemical exposure of commercial dishwashers compared to on-glaze printed tableware, though as with all decorated china, avoiding harsh scrubbing pads will extend the life of the finish.
- The Finca design is best suited to restaurants, boutique hotels, gastro pubs, and similar venues where a tactile, rustic aesthetic fits the overall concept. It is a decorative range with a distinctive character, so it works most effectively where the table presentation is considered part of the dining experience rather than purely functional.
- Yes — the Makers Finca collection is designed as a coordinated range, so the 229mm Nova Plate can be used alongside larger dinner plates, bowls, and serving pieces within the same collection to build out a full cover specification. If you are planning a mixed set across multiple formats, it is worth confirming availability across all required pieces before finalising your order.
