- Standout Looks: The reactive glaze makes each piece feel special and bespoke.
- Stacking Nuance: The charming uneven edge means they don't stack quite as flush as standard bowls.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Gilded Teapot, a bustling tearoom in York, was looking to move away from standard white crockery to something that better reflected their homemade, quality-first ethos.
"We needed something that felt special but could handle dozens of cycles through the dishwasher every day. The Olympia Chia bowls were the perfect fit. Customers constantly comment on how lovely they are, and our food photos on social media have never looked better!"
Clara Davies – Owner
Since the switch, the tearoom has noted a 25% increase in customer photo tags on Instagram, boosting their online visibility organically.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, give the bowls a quick wash in warm, soapy water or run them through a dishwasher cycle to remove any dust from packing and transit.
- Inspect each bowl for its unique glaze pattern – it's a good idea to know which ones you find most photogenic for your signature dishes!
- Stack them carefully in a designated, easy-to-access spot in your kitchen, ready for their first service.
Keeping It Going
- These bowls are fully dishwasher safe, so you can clean them with confidence in any commercial machine.
- To avoid scratches over time, try not to slide bowls stacked on top of each other; lift them instead.
- While they are incredibly tough, avoid using metal scourers or highly abrasive cleaners to maintain the smooth glaze finish.
- The vitrified porcelain is non-porous, so it won’t stain or hold onto strong flavours from dishes like curry or tomato-based sauces.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does 'fully vitrified' mean?
A: It means the porcelain has been fired to a point where it becomes glass-like and non-porous. This makes it much stronger, resistant to chipping, and stops it from absorbing moisture or food odours.
Q: Is every single bowl in the pack identical?
A: No, and that's the beauty of it! The reactive glaze process ensures each bowl has a unique finish and pattern, while still maintaining the same overall colour and style.
Q: Are these suitable for serving very hot soups?
A: Absolutely. Vitrified porcelain has excellent thermal resistance, so it's perfect for serving everything from piping hot soups to frozen desserts.
Q: What is a 'coupe' style bowl?
A: A coupe bowl is a rimless bowl with a sweeping, curved shape. It's a modern design that gives you a wider surface area for plating and makes the food the centre of attention.
Q: Can I use cutlery on these without scratching them?
A: Yes, the glaze is extremely hard-wearing and designed to resist marks from standard cutlery during normal use.
Q: What does the BS4034 certification mean?
A: This is a British Standard that certifies the tableware is of a professional quality suitable for use in hotels and catering, testing for things like water absorption and durability.
Q: Is the colour likely to fade after many washes?
A: No, the colour is part of the glaze itself, not a surface print. It's fused to the bowl and is designed to withstand thousands of commercial dishwasher cycles without fading.
Q: What kind of dishes work best in this Olympia CX954 coupe bowl?
A: They are incredibly versatile! They are perfect for pasta, salads, rice bowls, curries, soups, and desserts. The 220mm size is generous without being overwhelming.

Explore more from OlympiaWhat Makes a 'Reactive Glaze' So Special?
Ever wondered what 'reactive glaze' actually means? Think of it like a little bit of chemistry magic happening in the kiln. Unlike a standard, uniform colour that's simply painted on, a reactive glaze contains special minerals. When fired at high temperatures, these minerals react and move, creating unique, flowing patterns and subtle variations in colour across the surface. This means that while every 8.5 inch green coupe bowl in your set will share the same beautiful colour palette, no two will be exactly identical. It’s how you get that rustic, 'one-of-a-kind' pottery look, but with the industrial strength and consistency of commercially-made porcelain.
