Product Description
The Steelite Craft Porcini coupe plates are small-format side and starter plates produced in an alumina vitrified ceramic body with a hand-applied reactive glaze. Each plate carries a slightly individual finish as a result of the decoration process, giving the range a handmade, artisan quality that reads well on the table without requiring any additional dressing or styling.
The porcini colourwash — a warm, earthy brown tone — works particularly well as a backdrop for natural ingredients, salads, bread, charcuterie, and small plated starters. It sits comfortably alongside other pieces in the Steelite Craft range, making it straightforward to build a cohesive table setting across different course formats.
From an operational standpoint, the alumina vitrified ceramic construction gives these plates a practical durability that holds up well in commercial dishwasher cycles. Reactive-glaze tableware can sometimes require more careful handling than plain white, but this range is produced to commercial service standards and performs reliably under regular high-volume use.
- Dishwasher safe and built for commercial wash cycles
- Reactive glaze produces natural variation — each plate is individually decorated
- Coupe profile with no rim, lending a clean, contemporary presentation
- Earthy tonal glaze complements natural, ingredient-led food styles
- Supplied in a pack of 36, suitable for stocking a full section
These plates are well suited to casual dining restaurants, bistros, wine bars, and farm-to-table concepts where a handcrafted aesthetic is part of the broader identity. They work best where the menu style and tabletop direction call for warmth and texture rather than the precision of plain white. For operators needing a full range of sizes and formats, the broader Craft Porcini collection includes larger dinner plates and accompanying pieces.
If you're planning a new table setting or want to check how these fit alongside other pieces in the Craft range, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. The alumina vitrified ceramic construction is designed for commercial service environments and is rated for dishwasher use. The reactive glaze is applied and fired to commercial standards, so it holds up well under regular wash cycles, though as with all reactive-glaze tableware, avoiding impact stacking during washing will extend the life of the finish.
- Because each plate is individually decorated and the glaze reacts slightly differently during firing, you will see natural variation in tone and texture across the 36 pieces. This is an intentional characteristic of the range rather than a quality issue, and most operators find it adds to the handcrafted feel at the table. If strict uniformity is a priority for your concept, plain glazed alternatives may be more appropriate.
- At 153mm, these are primarily used as side plates, bread plates, or small starter plates rather than main course covers. They suit casual dining restaurants, bistros, wine bars, and any operation with an ingredient-led or artisan menu direction where a textured, earthy table aesthetic supports the overall guest experience.
