Product Description
The Churchill Stonecast Plume Ultramarine Chefs' Oblong Plate No.4 is a hand-decorated serving plate produced in super vitrified porcelain. The Plume finish is achieved through a layering technique in which colour is allowed to interact and blend during application, producing a fluid, organic pattern that varies naturally across individual pieces. The ultramarine colourway gives the range a distinctive, rich depth that reads well against a variety of plated dishes and table settings.
Super vitrified porcelain is a denser body than standard porcelain, which makes it noticeably more resistant to chipping at the rim during everyday handling, washing, and racking. At 838g per plate, the No.4 oblong has enough weight to feel stable on the pass and in the hand, without being unwieldy during a busy service. These are plates built to return consistent results across hundreds of covers rather than to impress once and fade.
The oblong format gives the kitchen a rectangular canvas that suits structured, multi-element plating — starters with distinct components, dessert courses with sauces and garnishes placed deliberately, or small sharing plates where presentation matters. Restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and event catering operations commonly use this format for exactly these purposes.
- Hand-decorated finish adds genuine visual character to each plate
- Super vitrified porcelain body resists chipping under regular commercial use
- Oblong shape supports composed, multi-element plating styles
- Sold in boxes of 6, allowing incremental stock building by cover count
- Consistent ultramarine tone across the Stonecast Plume range aids cohesive table presentation
If you are specifying across a full cover count or mixing formats within the Stonecast Plume range, the team is happy to work through quantities and combinations with you before you commit to an order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Churchill's Stonecast Plume finish is produced on super vitrified porcelain, which is designed to withstand the repeated thermal and mechanical stresses of commercial glasswasher and dishwasher cycles. Natural variation in the pattern is inherent to the hand-decorated process, but the finish is not a surface glaze applied on top — it is part of the overall decorative treatment intended for heavy daily use.
- The oblong format is most commonly used for starters, desserts, and sharing plates where the rectangular shape helps frame composed, multi-element dishes. It is less commonly used as a primary main course plate, where operators typically prefer a round format with a wider well — if you are specifying across multiple courses, it is worth considering which oblong sizes sit alongside your existing round pieces.
- Yes — the Stonecast Plume Ultramarine range is designed to coordinate across formats, so the oblong plates can be used alongside round plates, bowls, and other pieces within the same colourway. Because the Plume finish varies naturally across individual pieces, there will be some variation in pattern, but the ultramarine tone remains consistent enough for cohesive table presentation. If you are building a full specification across multiple formats, speaking to the team before ordering helps ensure you have the right quantities and mix.
