Product Description
The Steelite Craft Porcini coupe plate is a 253mm earthen-toned plate from Steelite's Craft range, designed for front-of-house use in restaurants, bistros, and casual dining operations. The porcini colourway sits in the warm brown and taupe spectrum, making it a practical choice for kitchens that want their tableware to complement natural, seasonal, or ingredient-led food presentations without relying on stark white china.
Each plate is individually hand decorated and finished with a reactive glaze, which means the surface tone and texture varies between pieces. In a busy dining room this reads as considered and artisan rather than mismatched — it is a deliberate characteristic of the range and one that tends to work well in settings where the food and environment share an earthy, natural aesthetic. The coupe profile, which has no rim well, keeps the focus on the food and suits modern plating styles.
Constructed from alumina vitrified ceramic, the plates are built to withstand the mechanical demands of professional table service. The material is dense, chip-resistant relative to standard vitrified china, and resists staining from sauces and pigmented ingredients — a practical consideration for plates that will cycle through a commercial dishwasher multiple times daily. Each plate weighs 620g, giving them a solid, quality feel that holds up well over extended service life.
- Well suited to restaurants, gastropubs, and bistros with an earthy or seasonal menu identity
- The hand-decorated finish means minor surface variation between plates — factor this in for very formal or uniform table settings
- Supplied in a pack of 24, which supports a reasonable cover count from a single order
If you are unsure whether the Porcini colourway will work alongside your existing tableware or interior scheme, it is worth speaking with the team before ordering — particularly given the pack quantity involved.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The variation is intentional. Each plate is individually hand decorated with a reactive glaze, so differences in tone and surface texture between pieces are a defining characteristic of the Craft range. In most dining settings this reads as artisan quality, but if your operation requires a very uniform table presentation, it is worth viewing samples before committing to a full order.
- Alumina vitrified ceramic is denser and harder than standard vitrified china, which makes it more resistant to chipping and crazing under repeated thermal cycling in commercial dishwashers. It also resists staining from common sauce ingredients, which helps plates retain their appearance over time. As with any ceramic tableware, correct stacking and handling in the wash area will extend service life considerably.
- A single pack of 24 will cover a small dining room or a single plate course in a modest operation, but most restaurants running two or more sittings will want to order two or more packs to maintain a comfortable par level through service and allow for breakages over time. If you are unsure how many covers a given pack quantity will support for your specific service pattern, the team can help you work that out before you order.
