Why this plate earns its place
The Reed coupe side plate gives a table setting a clear sense of place. William Edwards' hand-painted illustrations of English birdlife, including the Kingfisher, Reed Bunting and Lapwing, bring a patterned countryside character to the plate without losing the clean simplicity of its round coupe form.
Sized at 165mm and supplied in a 12-pack, it is a useful side-plate format for bringing consistency to a restaurant, hotel or café service. The individual pieces are easy to work into a setting for bread, smaller accompaniments or a light course, while the Reed pattern adds visual interest to the presentation.
The plate is designed and manufactured from bone china, and the manufacturer describes it as extremely durable. A scratch-resistant glaze gives the finish a practical edge for the repeated handling that comes with commercial table service.
