Product Information

Full details

The Olympia Kiln Triangular Side Plate is designed for professional chefs and home cooks who want a unique, artisanal aesthetic for their table settings. Its primary benefit lies in the stunning reactive glaze finish, which ensures that no two plates look exactly alike, providing a premium foundation for starters and desserts. While the hand-thrown style offers a sophisticated look, users should be aware that the triangular geometry requires more intentional placement compared to standard circular dinnerware.

Troubleshooting

Surface appears to have slight color variations between plates

This is a normal characteristic of the reactive glazing process and not a manufacturing defect.

Difficulty stacking plates in cabinets

Due to the triangular shape, arrange them in a rotating pattern or use vertical plate racks for more efficient storage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the life of your Olympia Kiln plates, ensure they are stored in a way that respects their triangular geometry—stacking should be done carefully to prevent uneven pressure. While the plates are microwave safe, avoid sudden, extreme temperature changes, such as moving from a freezer directly to a hot microwave. For cleaning, they are compatible with standard commercial dishwashing detergents. Due to the reactive nature of the glaze, avoid using abrasive scrubbers that could dull the hand-painted rim over long periods of time.
