Description
Our Jules deep plate sits halfway between a plate and a bowl. At 22cm across and 5cm tall, with a capacity of 800ml, it has the width of a plate and enough depth to hold a generous portion of something saucy. It is made from 100% stoneware, a dense ceramic fired at high temperature, which holds heat well and gives the plate a solid feel at 0.695KG. The finish is a reactive glaze, and that is what makes this piece itself: the multicoloured glaze breaks into broad sweeps and fine speckles around a gently uneven round rim, smooth in some places and freckled in others.
Use it wherever a flat plate would let the sauce run to the edge: pasta, risotto, curry, stew, a hearty grain salad or a serving of soup on a cold evening. Its 22cm width suits a single main portion, so it earns a place at weekday suppers at the kitchen table as well as at relaxed weekend dinners with friends. Because it goes in the oven, it can be warmed before serving or used for a small oven dish such as baked eggs, then carried straight to the table. The microwave suits it too, which makes it handy for reheating a portion of leftovers in the plate itself.
Care is simple: it goes in the dishwasher, so there is no hand washing after a busy evening. Reactive glazes move and pool as they are fired, so the pattern varies from piece to piece. For styling, let the glaze do the work: set it on a plain wooden board or a dark table, keep the cutlery simple and leave space around it so the sweeps of glaze show.
