Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Gilded Spoon, a bustling brunch spot in Bath, was looking to move away from standard white crockery to something that better reflected their cosy, premium-casual brand. They needed tableware that was as durable as it was stylish.
"We serve hundreds of coffees a day, and our tableware is the first thing customers touch. The Churchill saucers have been brilliant. They feel substantial, the colour is stunning, and customers genuinely notice and comment on them. They just look the part."
Michael Edwards – General Manager, The Gilded Spoon
Since the switch, the team has noted a significant increase in positive customer comments on the presentation of their hot drinks, reinforcing the café's quality-focused image.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully unpack and inspect each saucer for any signs of damage during transit.
- Give them a good wash in a commercial dishwasher or by hand before their first use to remove any dust.
- Ensure your cup and saucer sizes are compatible to prevent instability and spills.
- Designate a specific, safe storage area on a non-slip shelf to minimise accidental knocks.
Keeping It Going
- Load saucers into dishwasher racks carefully, avoiding direct contact that could cause chipping.
- Avoid extreme temperature changes, like moving a hot saucer to a cold-water rinse, to prevent thermal shock.
- When stacking, don't slide them across each other; lift and place them to protect the glazed surface.
- Regularly check for any small chips or cracks; remove damaged items from service to maintain safety standards.

Ever wonder what 'vitrified' actually means? It’s not just fancy marketing talk. During firing, the ceramic is heated to such a high temperature that the body becomes glass-like (vitreous) and non-porous. This process gives Churchill's crockery its incredible strength and durability.
Think of it like forging steel versus casting iron. The vitrification process creates a much stronger, more resilient final product that's highly resistant to the chips, cracks, and thermal shock common in a busy kitchen. It also means the saucer won't absorb moisture or odours, keeping it hygienic and stain-free for longer. It’s the science behind why this beautiful saucer can handle the toughest service day after day.
