- Weight Consideration: Being stoneware, they have more heft than porcelain, which staff should note.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Corner House Bistro in Harrogate was looking to refresh its table setting to match a new, contemporary interior design. They felt their old white plates were letting the side down and didn't reflect the quality of their locally-sourced menu.
"Switching to the Olympia Luna plates was a simple change that had a huge impact. Our food photography for social media has never looked better, and we regularly have customers asking where our plates are from. They just feel special."
Robert Finch – Head Chef
The bistro noted a 30% increase in customer engagement on Instagram posts featuring the new plates, helping to attract new local diners.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully unbox and inspect each plate for any signs of damage during transit.
- Give the plates a thorough wash in a dishwasher or by hand before their first use to remove any dust.
- When stacking for the first time, avoid clattering them together; place each one down gently.
- Ensure your shelving is clean, dry, and sturdy enough to hold the weight of the full set.
Keeping It Going
- These plates are fully commercial dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.
- To avoid scratches, try not to scrape cutlery harshly against the surface.
- Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, as this can dull the glaze over time.
- Stack carefully, avoiding impact on the rims to minimise the risk of chipping.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these plates microwave safe?
A: Yes, stoneware is generally safe for microwave use, making it handy for quick reheating tasks in the kitchen.
Q: What exactly is a 'coupe' plate?
A: A coupe plate has a smooth, concave shape with no rim. It's a modern style that's great for dishes with sauces.
Q: Will the colour vary between plates?
A: Yes, due to the reactive glaze finish, slight variations in colour and pattern are normal and part of the design's unique charm.
Q: How durable are they against chipping?
A: They are made from durable stoneware designed for commercial use, but like any ceramic, they can chip if knocked hard on the edges.
Q: Are they heavy to carry?
A: They have a reassuring weight that communicates quality, but are not overly heavy for serving staff to handle.
Q: Is the 205mm size suitable for a main course?
A: Absolutely. At just over 8 inches, it's a very versatile size, ideal for main courses, substantial lunches, or generous starters.
Q: Will the finish scratch with cutlery?
A: The glaze is fired to be tough and resistant to normal cutlery use. To keep them pristine, avoid excessive scraping with sharp knives.
Q: Why is the unglazed foot a benefit?
A: The slightly rough texture of the unglazed foot provides better grip on tablecloths and other surfaces, making the plate more stable.

Explore more from OlympiaWhat Exactly is a 'Reactive Glaze'?
Ever wondered how these plates get their unique, mottled finish? It's all down to the magic of a reactive glaze. Think of it like a mini science experiment happening in the kiln. Unlike a standard glaze that creates a single, flat colour, a reactive glaze contains a mix of different minerals. When fired at incredibly high temperatures, these minerals react with each other and the heat in unpredictable ways.
The result is a beautiful, variegated pattern of colour and texture, meaning that no two Olympia Luna DZ779 plates will ever be 100% identical. It’s how you get that gorgeous, deep space-like effect instead of just a flat blue. This process gives each piece an artisanal, hand-crafted character, offering a bespoke look without the bespoke price tag.
