Steelite Charcoal Dapple Rectangle Plate 330x190mm (Pack of 6)

The Steelite Charcoal Dapple rectangle plate is an alumina-enriched porcelain piece finished with a reactive glaze around the rim. Because reactive glazing responds differently during each firing, no two pieces are identical — the charcoal tones and dappled texture vary naturally from plate to plate, giving each one a distinct character while still reading as a coherent range on the pass.

In service, these plates hold up well under the demands of a busy kitchen environment. Porcelain of this construction resists chipping better than standard earthenware, and the rectangular format suits modern plating styles where the chef wants to control the visual layout of a dish — starter courses, sharing plates, and composed mains are all common applications. The 330 x 190mm footprint gives a useful run of plate without becoming unwieldy on the table or difficult to stack on the shelf.

• Reactive glaze creates natural variation — no two pieces look identical
• Rectangular format supports structured, contemporary plating
• Dishwasher safe for straightforward turnaround between covers
• Microwave and freezer safe, adding flexibility to service workflows
• Alumina-enriched porcelain for improved durability under daily use

As with any reactive-glaze tableware, it is worth being aware that colour and texture variation is a feature of the production process, not a quality inconsistency. If your operation requires very close visual uniformity across a large table set, this range may not be the right fit. For venues where that natural variation is part of the aesthetic — gastropubs, farm-to-table restaurants, independent bistros — it tends to work very well.

If you are building a table setting around this range or need to discuss quantities and mix of pieces for a new opening, the team is happy to help you work through the requirements before you order.
