Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully unpack and inspect each plate for any signs of damage during transit.
- Give them a good wash in a commercial dishwasher before their first use to remove any dust from manufacturing or packaging.
- As they are handcrafted, take a moment to appreciate the subtle differences that make each plate unique!
Keeping It Going
- These plates are tough, but avoid 'thermal shock' by not taking them from a hot oven directly to a cold surface.
- When loading into the dishwasher, ensure plates aren't knocking against each other to prevent chipping.
- The fully glazed base allows for safe stacking, but always stack neatly to ensure stability and prevent topples.
- Handle with care, as you would any quality porcelain, to ensure a long and beautiful service life.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are all the plates in a box identical?
A: Not exactly. As each Dudson Harvest FE366 deep coupe plate is glazed by hand, there will be subtle, unique variations in the finish. This is a key part of their rustic charm and appeal.
Q: What exactly is a 'coupe' plate?
A: A coupe plate is a modern, rimless design. This style gives you a larger, uninterrupted surface area, which is fantastic for creative food presentation.
Q: Is porcelain strong enough for a busy restaurant?
A: Yes, absolutely. This is commercial-grade porcelain, which is fired at incredibly high temperatures to make it durable, chip-resistant, and able to withstand daily use.
Q: Can these plates be used in a plate warmer?
A: Yes, they are designed to handle the gentle, consistent heat of a commercial plate warmer without any issues.
Q: How many plates come in one box?
A: These plates are supplied in a box of 12.
Q: What does the 'fully glazed base' actually do?
A: It protects the plate underneath it from getting scratched when you stack them. It's a premium feature that keeps your dinnerware looking new for longer.
Q: Is the grey colour consistent?
A: The overall colour is a consistent grey, but the hand-applied reactive glaze means there will be beautiful, subtle variations in tone and texture on each piece.
Q: Is Dudson a good brand for professional kitchens?
A: Dudson, now part of the Churchill family, has a long and respected history of producing high-quality, durable, and stylish dinnerware specifically for the hospitality industry.

Ever noticed the rough, unglazed ring on the bottom of some cheaper plates? That part, called the 'foot' or 'base', is often left as gritty bisque porcelain after firing. Think of it like a fine-grit sandpaper. When you stack those plates, that rough base grinds against the smooth, decorated surface of the plate below it, causing tiny scratches that dull the finish over time.
The Dudson Harvest plate, however, has a fully glazed base. This means the bottom is sealed and smooth, just like the top. It’s like stacking polished stones instead of rough bricks. This small detail makes a huge difference in a busy commercial environment, preventing scratching, preserving the plate's beautiful finish, and ultimately extending the life of your dinnerware collection. It’s a clever bit of design that saves you money in the long run.
