Delivery Information

Price Match

The Olympia Ember coupe plates are 180mm porcelain plates finished with a reactive glaze, meaning each piece carries a subtly different colour tone and surface character. That variation is intentional — it gives a handcrafted aesthetic without the fragility or inconsistency of genuinely handmade ware. At 180mm they sit comfortably in the starter, dessert, and side-dish bracket.

In service, porcelain of this type holds up well under the daily demands of a busy dining room — repeated dishwasher cycles, stacking, and general handling. The unglazed foot helps with both grip when stacking and stability when placed on a surface. Olympia backs the edge with a lifetime chip warranty, which is a practical reassurance in environments where chipping is a routine concern rather than an exception.

A few points worth considering for front-of-house use:

  • Reactive glaze produces natural colour variation — each plate differs slightly, which suits rustic or contemporary plating styles well
  • The unglazed foot aids stacking stability and reduces slide in storage
  • Dishwasher safe and suited to high-cycle commercial warewashing
  • Supplied in packs of 6, making it straightforward to build cover counts incrementally
  • Available in blue and mahogany, allowing a degree of table setting coordination within the Ember range

The 180mm size is generally appropriate for smaller plates in a multi-course setting. Operators building a full table setting should note that the Ember range extends across multiple sizes and forms, so a coordinated look across courses is achievable without mixing ranges.

If you're putting together a larger opening order or want to match these plates with other Ember pieces, it's worth a conversation with us before ordering to make sure quantities and colourways align with what you need.

Frequently asked questions

How many packs would a typical restaurant need for full cover service?

That depends on your cover count, the number of sittings per service, and how quickly your warewasher turns plates around. A useful rule of thumb is to hold two to three times your seated cover count to allow for turnaround time and a buffer against breakages. For a 40-cover restaurant running two sittings, somewhere in the region of 15 to 20 packs at this size would give you reasonable headroom.

Will the colour variation between plates be noticeable on the table?

The reactive glaze does produce genuine variation between individual plates — that's the nature of the finish rather than a quality inconsistency. In practice, the differences in tone and surface pattern are subtle enough to read as a coherent set at the table, and many operators find the variation suits relaxed-dining, bistro, or contemporary plating styles well. If a precisely uniform look is important for your setting, a standard white plate may be a better fit.

Are these plates suitable for use in a high-volume warewasher?

Yes — they are designed to be dishwasher safe and will handle the repeated cycles typical of commercial warewashing. The porcelain construction and glazed surfaces are well suited to the temperatures and detergents used in commercial rack or pass-through machines. The lifetime edge-chip warranty also provides some longer-term reassurance in environments where plates go through multiple cycles daily.
