Product Description
The Steelite Vesuvius Burnt Emerald coupe plate is a 230mm porcelain plate finished with a reactive glaze that produces natural variation in colour and tone across each piece. No two plates are identical, which is characteristic of the reactive process — the glaze responds to kiln conditions during firing, resulting in subtle shifts in depth and hue that give the range a considered, artisan appearance without looking contrived.
In a service environment, coupe plates of this size are commonly used for starters, desserts, and smaller main plates in fine dining or contemporary casual settings. The 230mm diameter sits in a practical middle ground — generous enough to allow clean plating without excess rim space, and compact enough to stack efficiently for storage and transport between pass and table. At 580g per plate, they carry reasonable weight for a porcelain piece of this size, which contributes to a quality feel in the hand during service.
The Vesuvius range is designed to work across the three colourways — Amber, Lapis, and Burnt Emerald — which allows operators to mix and contrast across covers or courses if that suits the style of the operation. The reactive glaze finish also helps mask minor handling marks that can accumulate on plain white ware over time, which is a practical advantage in a busy table service environment.
- Reactive glaze finish adds visual character to plated dishes
- 230mm diameter suits starter, dessert, and smaller main plates
- Coordinates with Amber and Lapis colourways within the Vesuvius range

Frequently Asked Questions
- Reactive glazes are fired in a way that produces intentional variation — each plate will share the same base colour but differ slightly in tone, depth, and patterning. This is a defining characteristic of the Vesuvius range rather than a quality issue, and most operators find it adds to the overall effect on the table. If absolute uniformity is a requirement for your operation, a plain or solid-colour ware may be a better fit.
- Yes — the Vesuvius range is designed so that the Amber, Lapis, and Burnt Emerald colourways complement one another. Some operators use a single colour per course, others mix across a cover for a more eclectic table setting. How you combine them will depend on your menu style and the overall look you are working towards.
- The Vesuvius plates are porcelain and intended for commercial table service environments. As with all reactive-glaze ware, following the manufacturer's care guidance — particularly avoiding abrasive cleaning agents — will help preserve the glaze finish over time. If you are operating high-volume covers with frequent wash cycles, it is worth discussing expected throughput with us so we can confirm suitability.
