Crockery Flat Plate Round White 16″

1. Description

The Crockery Flat Plate Round White 16″ is a grand, premium-sized serving plate designed to meet the demands of high-volume hospitality, event catering and elegant banquet service across New Zealand. With a generous diameter of 16 inches (approx. 40.6 cm), it offers expansive surface area to present shared platters, banquet entrees, buffet spreads, large salads or decorative displays.
Crafted from high-quality, high-fired white ceramic (or comparable vitrified porcelain), this flat round plate delivers exceptional durability, heat-retention, and a clean, classic white glaze that provides the perfect backdrop for vibrant food presentation. Whether used in a wedding reception in Auckland, a resort banquet in Queenstown, or a large-scale catering event in Wellington, the plate’s size, scale and professional finish make it ideal for any setting where impact, elegance and reliability matter.
The flat design (minimal lip or rim) allows dishes to be displayed broadly, letting chefs and planners maximise presentation space, while the white glaze and smooth surface ensure easy cleaning and efficient stacking. It is fully service-ready—dishwasher safe, oven-safe (depending on manufacturer rating), and suitable for regular use in commercial kitchens.
Combining practical functionality with premium appearance, the Crockery Flat Plate Round White 16″ is built for New Zealand’s busy hospitality environments while also offering the refined look demanded by upscale dining and event service.
