Steelite Craft Liquorice Coupe Plates 203mm (Pack of 24)

The Steelite Craft Liquorice coupe plate is a 203mm round plate produced in alumina vitrified ceramic with a hand-decorated reactive glaze. Because the glaze is applied and fired by hand, each plate carries subtle variation in tone and texture — intentional by design, and a characteristic that distinguishes this range from standard uniform tableware. The deep liquorice colourwash gives the plate a dark, near-matte finish that reads well against both pale linen and bare timber surfaces.

In service, alumina vitrified ceramic is a practical choice for busy operations. The material is denser and more chip-resistant than standard porcelain, which matters when plates are moving quickly through service, washing, and stacking cycles. The coupe profile — no rim, a shallow continuous curve — lends itself to plated starters, desserts, and composed small plates where presentation is a priority.

A few practical points worth noting for operators considering this range:

• Reactive glaze finish produces natural variation between plates — consistent within a batch but not identical
• Stackable profile allows efficient storage and reduces counter clutter during service
• Alumina vitrified construction offers good resistance to chipping under normal commercial handling
• Dishwasher safe for standard commercial warewashers
• Supplied in packs of 24, suited to par stock planning for most cover counts

The 203mm diameter positions this plate well for starters, desserts, or sharing portions rather than as a primary main course plate. Kitchens covering higher volumes or needing a larger main plate size will find alternative diameters within the Craft Liquorice range worth considering.
