Product Description
The Steelite Nyx Stack Plate is a rimless, deep black ceramic plate designed for contemporary food presentation in professional dining environments. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, it is a robust tableware choice built to handle the demands of regular commercial service rather than occasional use.
The deep, consistent black glaze is the defining characteristic of this range. In service, it provides strong visual contrast against almost any food colour — vibrant garnishes, sauces, and textured proteins all read clearly against the dark field. For kitchens where plate presentation is a considered part of the guest experience, this contrast can meaningfully strengthen how a dish lands visually. The rimless format gives chefs the full surface area to work with, which suits composed plating styles where every element of the dish has a defined position.
Alumina vitrified ceramic is a well-regarded material in commercial tableware. It offers good resistance to chipping and crazing under normal service conditions, and it holds up reasonably well through repeated pass-through dishwasher cycles. As with all ceramic tableware, care in handling and stacking remains important — the finish is durable, but not impervious.
- Deep black glaze amplifies food colour and presentation contrast
- Rimless profile maximises usable plating surface for the chef
- Alumina vitrified ceramic resists chipping under regular service
- Suitable for pass-through and rack dishwashers in commercial use
- Sold in boxes of 12, suited to restaurant and hotel par stock planning
This plate is well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and private members' clubs where table presentation is a priority. It sits within a broader range, so if your operation requires smaller side plates or larger sharing plates in the same colourway, it is worth exploring the full Nyx collection to ensure a consistent look across the table.
If you are specifying tableware across a full cover count or want to discuss quantities and mix of sizes, the team is happy to talk it through before you place an order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Alumina vitrified ceramic is a practical choice for busy services — it handles repeated dishwasher cycles well and resists chipping better than standard porcelain under normal conditions. That said, like all ceramic tableware, it benefits from careful stacking and handling during the wash cycle. For very high cover counts, it is worth calculating your par stock carefully so plates have adequate dwell time before returning to service.
- The deep black finish on the Nyx range is part of the vitrified ceramic body rather than a surface coating, which means it is not prone to fading or washing off in commercial dishwashers. Some very gradual surface marking can occur over extended use in any ceramic tableware, but the colour field remains substantially consistent through normal service life.
- At 255mm this is a versatile size — large enough for a composed main course in a modern plating style, and equally well suited to a generous starter or dessert. If your kitchen needs a smaller plate for amuse-bouche or side dishes, it is worth checking whether the Nyx range includes other sizes to maintain a consistent look across the table.
