Product Description
The Steelite Scape Oval Platter is a 400mm glass serving piece from Steelite's Scape range, designed for sharing presentations and table-centre service. The smoked, graphite-toned glass has a subtle texture worked into the surface, giving each platter a degree of visual interest without distracting from the food placed on it. At 400mm, each platter is large enough to carry a meaningful sharing portion for two to four covers, making them well suited to sharing menus, charcuterie boards, antipasti, or plated dessert spreads.
In practical service terms, glass platters of this type perform well where the visual presentation of the food is part of the dining experience. The translucency of the smoked glass allows light to pass through the piece, which can work effectively under table lighting or in naturally lit dining rooms. The graphite finish sits comfortably alongside both white ceramic tableware and darker, more textured pieces, giving front-of-house teams some flexibility in how they build a cover.
- Smoked glass finish provides a neutral, contemporary staging for plated food
- Large oval format suits sharing portions across a range of menu styles
- Subtle surface texture adds visual interest without competing with the food
- Glass construction is easy to wipe down and maintain between services
- Supplied as a pack of six, practical for consistent table presentation across a section
As with all glass serviceware, these platters are best handled carefully during service and storage. Glass is heavier than ceramic equivalents — the pack weight reflects this — and storage arrangements should account for that. They are not intended for direct oven or flame use and should be checked regularly for chips or stress marks, particularly around the edges.
These platters are well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and bistros where sharing menus or composed plates form a regular part of the offer. They are less suited to very high-turnover casual dining where rapid handling and stacking are routine.
If you are unsure whether these fit your existing tableware scheme or service style, the team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- They are suitable for regular service in environments where sharing platters are part of the menu format, such as restaurants or hotel dining rooms. Glass serviceware does require more careful handling than ceramic during clearing and stacking, so they tend to perform better in table service settings than in high-turnover casual dining.
- Glass serviceware of this type is generally compatible with commercial glasswashers, though you should confirm the manufacturer's guidance for the specific wash cycle and temperature. Avoid sudden thermal shocks — placing cold glass directly into a hot wash cycle can stress the material over time.
- That depends on your cover count and how frequently the platters turn over during a service. For a section of four to six tables running sharing menus, a single pack of six may be sufficient with good timing, but many operators prefer to hold additional stock to allow for breakages and washing cycles without disrupting service.
