Steelite Nyx Stack Plate 165mm Black Ceramic (Box 12)

The Steelite Nyx Stack Plate is a rimless, flat plate produced in alumina vitrified ceramic with a deep, matte black finish. At 165mm across, it sits in the smaller plate bracket — well suited to starters, amuse-bouches, desserts, and small plates in a sharing or tasting menu format. The rimless profile gives chefs the full surface to work with, without a rim competing visually with the dish.

In service, the black ground does genuine work. Vibrant colours — the orange of a carrot purée, the green of a herb oil, the white of a foam — read with considerably more clarity against a dark field than they would on conventional white ware. For kitchens where presentation is part of the proposition, that contrast can make a meaningful difference to how dishes land with diners.

Alumina vitrified ceramic is a practical choice for commercial environments. It is denser and more resistant to chipping than standard porcelain, which matters when plates are being stacked, handled at pace, and run through commercial dishwashers repeatedly. The stackable profile keeps storage manageable behind the pass.

• Rimless surface maximises the usable plating area for chefs
• Deep black finish enhances colour contrast in plated dishes
• Alumina vitrified ceramic construction for durability in service
• Stackable form keeps storage practical in tight back-of-house spaces
• Sold in boxes of 12, suited to cover-count planning

This plate is a considered choice for restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and tasting-menu operations where presentation standards are high. It is less likely to be the right fit for high-turnover casual dining where rapid attrition makes a more economical ware more practical.
