Description
This is a blue stoneware dinner plate, 27cm across and 2cm tall, with a wavy, scalloped rim that gives it far more character than a plain round plate. Raised ribs radiate out from a smooth centre like the petals of a flower, and the solid coloured glaze looks lighter over each ridge, so the ribs catch the light while the well stays an even, soft blue. At 27cm it is a true dinner plate size, with room for a main course and its sides, and at 1.08KG it has a solid, reassuring weight.
We see it as an everyday plate for the kitchen table that is just as ready for dinner with friends. The flat centre gives a plated meal a clean frame, from a weeknight pasta to a Sunday roast, while the fluted rim adds texture without fuss. It also works laid on a sideboard as a serving plate for cheese, bread or a cake. Because it sits only 2cm tall, a stack of these plates takes little height in a cupboard or on an open kitchen shelf. Its blue suits breakfast in a bright kitchen as much as supper by candlelight.
It is made entirely of stoneware and finished in a solid coloured glaze. Stoneware is fired at a high temperature into a dense, hard body, which is why it suits daily use. Care is simple: the plate goes in the dishwasher, in the microwave to reheat a meal, and in the oven to warm through before serving. For styling, the blue sits happily against bare wood and linen, and a single plate laid on a wooden board makes a simple setting for breakfast. The styling props shown are not included.
