Product Description
The Steelite Ink Crackle Grey coupe plate is a 203mm side or starter plate finished in a distinctive crackled grey glaze. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, it is part of Steelite's Ink Crackle range and is supplied in packs of twelve. The coupe profile — with its shallow, rimless form — keeps the focus squarely on the food rather than the plate itself.
In a busy service environment, the alumina vitrified ceramic construction offers good resistance to the knocks and thermal cycling that tableware faces in a professional kitchen. The crackle glaze finish is consistent across pieces within the range, which matters when dishes are plated side by side on a pass or presented as part of a set menu. At 370g per plate, the weight sits in a practical range — substantial enough to feel considered without being cumbersome for front-of-house staff handling multiple covers.
The grey crackle finish works well as a neutral backdrop for vibrant garnishes, sauces, or ingredient colours, and the flat coupe surface gives chefs a clean canvas for composed starters or sharing plates. The plates stack securely, which supports efficient use of limited storage space on shelving or in plate-warming units.
- Consistent crackle glaze finish supports uniform presentation across covers
- Coupe profile suits composed plating for starters, sharing plates, or desserts
- Alumina vitrified ceramic handles the thermal and physical demands of regular service
- Stackable form keeps storage organised during busy periods
This size is well suited to starter, side, or dessert courses in restaurants, bistros, and hotel dining rooms where presentation is a priority. For operations requiring a larger main-course plate within the same Ink Crackle range, alternative sizes are available.
If you are building a cover count or matching these to other pieces in the range, we are happy to help work through the quantities and combinations that make sense for your service.

Frequently Asked Questions
- At 203mm, this is most commonly used as a starter, side, or dessert plate rather than a main course plate. It works well for composed starters, sharing elements, or plated desserts where the chef wants a clean, rimless surface without the plate dominating the presentation.
- Steelite's alumina vitrified ceramic tableware is manufactured for commercial use and is designed to withstand the repeated wash cycles of a commercial glasswasher or dishwasher. As with all vitrified ceramic, consistent care with stacking and handling during the wash cycle will help maintain the glaze over time.
- Yes — the Ink Crackle range is designed as a cohesive collection, so the crackle glaze and grey colourway are consistent across different plate profiles and sizes. This makes it straightforward to use multiple sizes across courses within the same set menu or table setting without mismatching finishes.
