Description
This is a stoneware dinner plate, 27cm across and 2cm tall, finished in a solid beige glaze. What makes it itself is the rim: a ring of soft flutes runs out from a smooth, flat centre and ends in a gently wavy, scalloped edge, so the plate looks a little like an open flower on the table. At 27cm it is a true dinner plate size, wide enough for a full main course with room to spare around the edge. It is made entirely of stoneware, a dense, hard-wearing clay body, and it weighs 1.08KG, so it feels solid and steady in the hand.
It belongs on the everyday dining table as much as on one laid for guests. Use it for a Sunday roast, a heaped salad or a weeknight supper, or bring it out at afternoon tea as a serving plate for cakes and biscuits. The beige is quiet enough to sit beside plain or brightly patterned tableware, and the fluted rim gives a simple table some texture with no printed pattern to clash. It suits a farmhouse kitchen, a pared-back Scandinavian dining room or a table dressed with linen and fresh flowers, and it makes a thoughtful housewarming gift.
The plate is glazed in a solid colour, and it goes in the dishwasher, the microwave and the oven. That means you can warm it in the oven before serving, reheat a plate of leftovers in the microwave and put it straight in the dishwasher afterwards. Stoneware holds heat well, which makes warming the plate first worth doing. Between meals, stack a few on an open shelf or a kitchen dresser, where the wavy rims line up into a soft ripple and the plates become part of the room.
