Steelite Nyx Stack Plate 202.5mm Black Ceramic (Box 12)

The Steelite Nyx Stack Plate is a rimless black ceramic plate designed for professional kitchen environments where plating presentation is taken seriously. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, it offers a deep, consistent black colour field across the full surface. The 202.5mm diameter sits comfortably in the starter-to-main plate range and the rimless profile gives chefs the full face of the plate to work with.

In service, the black glaze creates a strong visual contrast against most food colours — particularly vibrant sauces, garnishes, and lighter proteins — which tends to make dishes read more clearly to the diner without any additional effort from the kitchen. It is the kind of plate that works quietly in the background rather than competing with the food.

• Rimless profile maximises usable plating area for the chef
• Deep black glaze provides reliable contrast with most food tones
• Alumina vitrified ceramic construction handles the rigours of regular commercial use
• Stackable design supports practical storage in busy pass areas
• Sold in a box of 12, suited to structured service planning

As a ceramic plate, it will perform well under normal restaurant service conditions, though like all vitrified ceramics it is not indestructible — care in stacking and handling will extend the life of the ware. The Nyx range is well suited to restaurants, hotel dining, and tasting menu operations where plate choice is considered part of the overall dining experience. Sites with high-volume, fast-turnover covers may want to weigh up whether a more utilitarian alternative meets their needs better.
