Product Information
Full details
The Olympia Kiln Round Coupe Plates are designed for professional caterers and home enthusiasts who value an artisan aesthetic without sacrificing commercial-grade performance. These 180mm plates provide a unique, rustic look through a hand-applied rim and reactive glaze, making them ideal for high-end table presentations; however, because of the reactive glazing process, users should expect subtle visual variations between individual pieces.

FAQs
Are these plates dishwasher safe?
Yes, they are designed to withstand professional commercial dishwasher cycles.
What does the BS4034 standard mean?
BS4034 is a quality standard for vitrified hotelware, indicating that the plates have very low water absorption and high mechanical strength.
Can I use these in the oven?
Yes, they are oven-safe, which makes them ideal for plating dishes that require warming before service.
Will every plate look exactly the same?
No, the reactive glaze and hand-applied rim are designed to provide unique, subtle variations, ensuring each piece is one-of-a-kind.
How do I claim the edge-chip warranty?
Keep your proof of purchase and contact the retailer or Olympia directly to verify the terms of your specific warranty coverage.
Is this plate suitable for main courses?
At 180mm, these are typically sized for starters, bread, desserts, or side dishes rather than large main entrees.
Troubleshooting
Surface appears to have marks or light scratches
Use a ceramic cleaner or a paste of bicarbonate of soda and water to gently buff out metal transfer marks from cutlery.
Plate is very hot after microwave use
Use protective mitts when removing from the microwave as vitrified ceramic retains heat significantly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your Olympia Kiln plates, ensure they are not subjected to sudden extreme temperature changes, such as moving directly from a freezer to a hot oven. While they are dishwasher safe, stacking them carefully is recommended to protect the artisan edges. Because they meet BS4034 standards, they are suitable for high-frequency washing cycles in commercial dishwashers. If stacking for storage, use felt separators to prevent surface scratching over long periods of use.
