Put Your Restaurant at the Table

Choose the Plate Around Your Idea
Does your design need a broad picture area, a name around the rim, or a shape that feels different? Explore the options, then ask our staff which available piece suits your artwork and intended use.
For current choices, browse our dishware inventory. Please confirm the size, availability and suitable print area with us before planning your order.
One Design Can Bring a Whole Table Together
Planning restaurant dishware, workplace tableware or a coordinated gift? Tell us about the full project. We can discuss matching artwork across plates, bowls and mugs, with placement suited to each shape.
Before a Larger Run, Hold the Real Thing
A paid physical, kiln-fired prototype lets you assess the actual piece, print position and fired colour before committing to a larger order. Colour can shift during firing; exact colour matching is not guaranteed. Ask us about prototype cost and timing for your project.
Discuss My Order or Paid PrototypeCustom Ceramic Plate Questions, Answered
Will every printed piece look exactly the same?
Each print is carefully positioned by hand before kiln firing. Slight differences in placement and alignment are a normal part of this hands-on process. Colours can also vary during firing. We aim for a consistent, attractive result, while recognising that individually decorated pieces may not be identical.
If your design depends on very specific positioning, please discuss it with our staff before ordering.
Can I order just one personalised plate?
Yes. We welcome a single keepsake as well as sets and larger business orders. Tell us your approximate quantity and preferred plate so we can confirm availability and quote for the actual project.
What affects the cost of custom printed plates?
The chosen plate, quantity, artwork preparation, size and placement of the print, and any special decoration affect the quote. A paid prototype, delivery location and requested timing can also affect the total. Share those details and we’ll explain the options before you commit.
Can you print my photo, logo, artwork or handwriting?
Yes. Send the best original file you have and explain where you would like it printed. We’ll review the image and its fit on the selected plate. Fine lettering and detail need enough room to remain readable; our staff can help you choose a suitable layout.
Are these ceramic plates or porcelain plates?
Both descriptions apply: porcelain is a type of ceramic. The plates on this page use porcelain with custom kiln-fired decoration. If you have a particular material or shape in mind, tell us before ordering.
Are the printed plates food safe, dishwasher safe and microwave safe?
Our standard kiln-fired printed porcelain plates are food safe, dishwasher safe and microwave safe. Metallic decoration is the exception: plates with real gold or platinum accents should be hand washed and must not go in the microwave. Confirm care for your selected piece and decoration, and read our lead and cadmium testing information.
Can I see my design on a real plate before a larger order?
Ask about a paid physical, kiln-fired prototype. It is an actual printed piece you can inspect for colour, placement and finish. Firing can change colours, so we do not promise an exact match to a screen or paper print.
How soon can I receive my plates?
Tell us the date the plates must arrive, your quantity and the delivery city and country. Timing depends on the available dishware, artwork, production and shipping. We’ll confirm what is possible for your order. For a tight deadline, ask about rush production before making plans.

A Verse for Your Tableware
On plates you can print your own art,
City scenes or travel dreams play their part.
Abstract designs or logos so grand,
For corporate dinners or a restaurant's brand.
Custom dishware to impress and delight,
Make every meal a personalized sight!
