Product Description
The Steelite Craft White Coupe Plate is a 300mm flatware piece from Steelite's Craft range, produced in alumina vitrified ceramic. The coupe profile — a clean, rimless shape with a gently curved edge — provides a broad, uninterrupted presentation surface well suited to plated starters, mains, and composed desserts. The defining characteristic of the Craft range is that each piece carries subtle variation in surface texture and tone, produced naturally by kiln reactions during firing. No two plates are identical, which gives the range a handmade aesthetic without the fragility or inconsistency that genuine handmade ware would bring to a busy kitchen.
In service, alumina vitrified ceramic performs reliably under the conditions a commercial kitchen places on tableware: repeated dishwasher cycles, contact with hot food, microwave use, and the occasional knock or stack impact. The material is considerably denser and more chip-resistant than standard vitrified china, which matters when plates are moving quickly through a busy wash and re-lay cycle. The Craft range is oven and freezer safe as well, which offers some flexibility in plating workflows — particularly useful where plates are pre-set or dishes are finished to order in the oven.
- Broad coupe surface supports clean, uncluttered plating presentation
- Kiln-fired variation gives each plate a distinct, natural character
- Alumina vitrified ceramic resists chipping better than standard vitrified china
- Safe for dishwasher, oven, microwave, and freezer use
- Supplied in packs of 12, suited to building or replenishing covers
The 300mm diameter is a versatile size — commonly used as a main course plate in casual dining, bistro, and contemporary restaurant settings. It also works as a sharing plate or a generous starter plate depending on the style of service. If your covers run high and breakage replacement is a regular consideration, it is worth thinking about stock depth at ordering stage. The pack-of-12 format makes it straightforward to order in quantities that match your cover count and holding requirements.
The Craft range suits operators who want tableware with a degree of natural character and texture — it reads well in informal fine dining, farm-to-table, and modern bistro environments. For venues that need a more uniform, traditional white plate, other ranges in the Steelite catalogue may be a better match. If you are selecting across multiple sizes or building a coordinated table setting, it is worth confirming compatibility across the Craft range before committing to quantities.
If you would like to discuss which sizes or quantities suit your covers and service style, the team is happy to help you work through it.

Frequently Asked Questions
- 300mm is one of the most commonly used main course plate sizes in casual dining and contemporary restaurant environments, offering enough surface area for composed dishes without feeling oversized on a standard table. If your menu leans toward smaller portions or tapas-style service, a smaller size in the Craft range may be more appropriate, and the team can advise on the options available.
- The Craft range is produced in alumina vitrified ceramic, which is a denser material than standard vitrified china and holds up better against the chipping that occurs through regular stacking, handling, and dishwasher cycling. That said, no ceramic tableware is indestructible, and operators running high covers should factor a realistic breakage allowance into their stock planning.
- The kiln-fired variation in the Craft range is intentional — each plate carries subtle differences in surface texture and tone, which is part of the range's character. In practice, plates read as a cohesive set on the table because the base glaze and profile are consistent; the variation is noticeable on close inspection rather than disruptive to the overall table presentation.
