Steelite Craft White Coupe Plate 280mm (Pack of 12)

The Steelite Craft White Coupe Plate is a 280mm round plate finished in a naturally reactive glaze that produces subtle variation between individual pieces. Because the surface effects are created during the kiln firing process rather than applied uniformly, no two plates are identical — a characteristic that suits operators looking to add a handcrafted quality to their table presentation without moving away from a white palette.

Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, these plates are built to the durability standards expected in professional catering. The material resists chipping and crazing under the thermal cycling and mechanical handling that comes with continuous high-volume service and repeated machine washing. They are safe for use in ovens, microwaves, and freezers, which gives kitchen teams flexibility in how they prepare and hold plated dishes during service.

From a practical standpoint, the coupe profile — no rim, with the plate surface running to a gently curved edge — suits a wide range of plating styles and works well in both à la carte and prix fixe environments. Key operational characteristics include:

• Kiln-reactive glaze creates individual variation — adds character without bespoke cost
• Alumina vitrified ceramic construction handles heavy daily dishwasher cycles reliably
• Oven, microwave, and freezer safe for flexible kitchen workflow
• Rimless coupe profile supports clean, modern plating presentation
• Supplied in a pack of 12, suited to building or topping up restaurant cover sets

The 280mm diameter is a mainstream main course size and will suit most table settings comfortably. Operators running larger tasting menus or needing a smaller starter format should consider whether this size fits across all courses, or whether complementary sizes from the same Craft White range would be more practical.

If you are specifying tableware across multiple covers or matching to an existing Steelite range, it is worth talking through your requirements before ordering — we are happy to help you work out quantities and sizing.
