Why this plate earns its place
A 17cm round plate for bread, butter, or small sides. Vitrified porcelain is harder-fired and more durable than earthenware, resisting chipping through daily service. The white glaze is a neutral background that doesn't distract from the food.
The classic rim design stacks securely and fits into standard storage. In formal place settings, the side plate is the foundation — it's where your 23cm and 21cm plates sit at each course, and its consistency matters for professional presentation.
