Product Description
The Rene Ozorio Wabi Sabi Galet coupe plate is a hand-glazed, double-fired porcelain plate from Thai designer Rene Ozorio, produced by Steelite. At 285mm, it sits comfortably in the larger-plate category and is well suited to main course presentation where the food benefits from a clean, open canvas. The Wabi Sabi range takes its name from the Japanese aesthetic philosophy that finds value in imperfection and natural irregularity — each piece carries its own subtle tonal variation as a result of the hand-glazing process, so no two plates are entirely identical.
In a service environment, this character is a deliberate feature rather than a quality concern. The double-fired porcelain construction gives the body durability appropriate for regular restaurant use, and the coupe profile — with its minimal rim — works well with contemporary plating styles where chefs want the full plate surface available. The galet colourway reads as a warm, muted grey-tone that complements both natural and dark table linen without competing with the food.
- Hand-glazed finish produces natural tonal variation across each plate
- Double-fired porcelain for durability in regular restaurant service
- 285mm diameter suits generous main course portions
- Rimless coupe profile gives full surface area for plating
- Supplied in packs of 6, practical for building or topping up cover sets
It is worth noting that because the glaze is applied by hand, there will be visible variation between pieces — operators wanting a tightly uniform look across a large cover count should consider whether that characteristic suits their aesthetic intent before ordering in volume.
If you are putting together a full cover or want to discuss how this plate sits alongside other pieces in the Wabi Sabi range, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — intentional variation in tone and texture is inherent to the hand-glazing process and is central to the Wabi Sabi design philosophy. In practice, pieces within a pack will share a family likeness but will not be identical. For operators who prefer a closely uniform look across a full cover, it is worth viewing a sample before committing to a larger order.
- At 285mm this plate is sized for main courses, where the open coupe profile gives chefs a generous canvas. For starter or side courses, a smaller diameter from the same Wabi Sabi range would be more proportionate — the team can advise on which sizes are available and how they work together as a cover.
- Double-fired porcelain is a practical choice for restaurant service and is designed to withstand regular commercial dishwasher cycles. As with any hand-finished piece, the glaze should be monitored over time for wear, and stacking should be managed carefully to avoid chipping at the rim edge.
