About this product

  • Black square melamine plate
  • Straight raised sides with rounded outer corners
  • Parallel ridges across the serving base
  • Height: 1½ in

Product Overview

Straight raised sides give the IT-5043B black melamine plate a clearly enclosed square serving area. It stands 1½ inches high, with parallel ridges across the base and softly rounded outer corners. The dark finish provides a simple background for sushi, appetizers or the components of a plated course, while the ridged surface adds detail beneath the arrangement.

Use the square center for sushi or components of an appetizer course. The upright sides define the border more strongly than a broad, shallow rim, giving the serving a distinct outline at the table. Pair it with square black bowls to repeat the straight-sided forms, or add a round tea cup for a curved contrast. Smooth black plates balance the ridged base. A separate sauce bowl provides its own place for a dipping accompaniment.

Parallel ridges beneath straight raised sides

The plate's base carries parallel ridges inside a square border with softly rounded outer corners. Its 1½-inch height gives the sides a clear profile, bringing a different form to the table from a broad-rimmed flat plate.
