Why this plate earns its place
The 260 mm plate is the workhorse of a modern table setting: large enough for a full main course or a sharing plate in tapas and small-plates service, compact enough to fit comfortably on a standard table. The coupe profile gives you a working rim without the weight or footprint of a full charger, and the shallow 10 mm depth keeps the plate light and stable even when fully loaded.
The semi-matte Vellum glaze is engineered for high-volume hospitality: it resists alkaline dishwasher detergent and the thermal shock that crazes or dulls cheaper porcelain. After hundreds of commercial cycles the finish stays consistent. The hand-applied rustic edge band adds visual interest without thickness or weight; it is decorative and does not reinforce the rim or affect stacking or durability.
Stonecast Raw projects craft without requiring white-glove service. The warm grey pairs across other sizes and crockery ranges and photographs well for social media or menu photography. For restaurants, hotels, gastropubs, and event catering where the plate contributes to the brand, this aesthetic justifies itself. At 0.728 kg per plate, 12 pieces weigh just under 9 kg and stack flat in under 13 cm of height.
