Description
These are four round stoneware dinner plates, each 26.5cm across and 3cm tall, with a wavy rim and a raised pattern of small petal-like teardrops that radiates in rings from the centre. At 26.5cm they are a true dinner plate size, wide enough for a full main course with room for sides. The grey reactive glaze gathers darker in the hollows of the relief and thins over the raised edges, which gives the pattern real depth. Stoneware is fired hard and dense, which makes it a sturdy choice for plates in daily use.
They suit the everyday kitchen table as much as a weekend dinner with friends, and four plates cover a small family's evening meal or a table for two with spares. The relief and the wavy rim give a simple supper of pasta or roast vegetables a little more character without competing with the food. The grey sits easily beside a scrubbed wooden table, linen napkins and plain glassware, and it works with both rustic and pared-back settings. At 26.5cm across, one also makes a good sharing plate for bread, cheese or olives in the middle of the table.
The plates are 100% stoneware finished in a reactive glaze. A reactive glaze shifts as it fires, so tone and depth vary a little from one plate to the next and each has its own character. They go in the dishwasher, which makes them practical for every day, and in the microwave, so leftovers can be reheated straight on the plate. They are not for the oven, so keep oven cooking to your bakeware. For styling, stack all four on an open shelf or dresser where the wavy edges show, and pair them with plain wooden boards or simple glass bowls so the pattern stays the focus.
