White porcelain inspired by natural textures

Fine Dine Nordic combines the versatile white of porcelain with a distinctive surface inspired by tree bark. As a result, the collection retains a bright and elegant character, yet differs from classic, completely smooth tableware.

The textured finish gives the tableware a raw, natural look that complements signature cuisine, seasonal ingredients and modern plating. At the same time, the white surface serves as a neutral backdrop, allowing the focus to remain on the colour and presentation of the dish.

The collection showcases, amongst other things:

• colourful vegetables and fresh herbs,
• meat, fish and seafood,
• pasta, risotto and dishes with sauce,
• Asian cuisine,
• cheeses, snacks and starters,
• desserts with fruit, chocolate and colourful decorations,
• compositions based on natural and seasonal ingredients.

A matt glaze with a texture reminiscent of tree bark

The most distinctive feature of the Fine Dine Nordic collection is the matt glaze with a distinctive texture inspired by tree bark. The uneven surface gives the white porcelain a natural, handcrafted character, visible both up close and within the overall table setting.

The matt finish minimises intense light reflections. As a result, the food remains the focal point of the composition, whilst the texture of the tableware provides a subtle, decorative complement.

This finish works particularly well with:

• minimalist and modern plating,
• dishes inspired by nature,
• dishes based on seasonal ingredients,
• compositions utilising different textures,
• tasting menus,
• signature and gourmet cuisine.

A neutral backdrop for creative food presentation

White porcelain does not compete with the colours of the ingredients. It allows the colours of sauces, fresh herbs, vegetables, fruit and the chef’s garnishes to be clearly showcased.

The texture, reminiscent of tree bark, breaks up the classic white and gives even simple compositions a more natural and contemporary feel. The collection can be used for both minimalist plating and more elaborate arrangements.

Fine Dine Nordic and Crust – two complementary colours

Fine Dine Nordic and Fine Dine Crust form a related family of tableware. Nordic is the white variant, whilst Crust stands out with its deep black colour. Both collections feature a matt glaze and a texture reminiscent of tree bark.

White and black tableware can be combined to:

• create a contrasting table setting,
• highlight individual courses on a tasting menu,
• match the colour of the tableware to a specific dish,
• add variety to the table setting without mixing different styles of tableware,
• create black-and-white arrangements in modern interiors,
• use light and dark tableware at different times of the day.

Nordic can form a light-coloured base for the tableware, whilst the black Crust elements can serve as contrasting accents. The reverse combination is also possible, in which white porcelain highlights only selected dishes.

An extensive collection for different stages of a meal

Fine Dine Nordic comprises tableware in a variety of shapes, sizes and capacities. This allows you to put together a set for starters, main courses, soups, pasta, snacks, desserts and coffee service.

The collection includes, amongst other items:

• shallow plates – for starters, main courses and desserts,
• shallow plates with a rim – for modern presentations and dishes served with sauce,
• pasta plates – for pasta, risotto, cream soups and dishes with a generous amount of sauce,
• rectangular plates – for snacks, tasting platters and elongated presentations,
• rectangular platter – for sharing and presenting several ingredients,
• serving plate with a handle – for snacks, starters and dishes intended for sharing,
• shallow and deep bowls – for soups, salads, desserts and bowl-style dishes,
• nested bowls and slanted bowls – for creative plating,
• soup bowl with lid – for serving hot dishes in a striking way,
• ramekins – for sauces, dips and small accompaniments,
• cups and saucers – for espresso, coffee, tea and other hot drinks.

Fine Dine Nordic shallow plates

Shallow plates in various sizes can form the basis of your everyday tableware. The white surface shows off the colour of the food well, whilst the texture, reminiscent of tree bark, adds a decorative touch to the tableware.

Larger models are ideal for main courses and elaborate plating, whilst smaller ones can be used for starters, breakfasts, desserts and small portions.

When choosing a plate, it is worth considering:

• the diameter and usable surface area,
• the size of a standard portion,
• the amount of free space required for plating,
• the height and profile of the rim,
• the type and quantity of sauce,
• whether a particular model can be stacked.

Plates with a rim

Plates with a distinct rim help to visually organise the composition and separate the serving surface from the decorative edge. They are particularly well-suited to modern plating, dishes served with sauce, and portions requiring precise arrangement of ingredients.

A matt glaze and textured rim can provide a natural setting for a centrally arranged dish without the need for many additional decorations.

Rectangular plates and platters

Rectangular plates allow you to move away from the classic, central arrangement of the dish. The elongated surface enables the composition to be arranged along the length of the plate and allows for a clear separation of several ingredients.

They can be used to serve:

• finger food,
• tasting dishes,
• sushi and Asian cuisine,
• fish and seafood,
• cheeses and cold cuts,
• multi-course desserts,
• dishes intended for sharing.

Serving plate with a handle

A serving plate with a handle can be used to serve snacks, starters, tasting dishes, desserts and compositions intended for sharing. Its distinctive shape allows you to add variety to the table setting and introduce an element inspired by serving boards.

The handle should be regarded as an integral part of the plate’s design. Take care when handling it, bearing in mind the weight of the food and the temperature of the porcelain.

Pasta plate

The pasta plate has a deepened centre, which helps to keep pasta, risotto, sauce or cream soup in the centre of the plate. The wide rim provides additional space for decoration and helps to maintain a neat appearance.

The white surface showcases both light and dark sauces, fresh herbs, colourful vegetables and ingredients with intense colours.

Bowls in various shapes

The collection includes classic bowls, shallow bowls, slanted bowls and nest-shaped bowls. The different shapes allow you to choose a bowl that suits not only the portion size but also the way the dish is presented.

Fine Dine Nordic bowls can be used for:

• soups and creams,
• salads,
• pasta and rice dishes,
• bowl-style dishes,
• snacks and side dishes,
• desserts,
• tasting platters.

When choosing, it is worth considering the depth, capacity, rim diameter and the amount of space needed to arrange ingredients and garnishes.

Soup bowl with lid

A bowl with a lid allows you to serve soup, stew or other hot dishes in a striking way. The lid can help minimise heat loss whilst carrying the dish from the kitchen to the dining room and create an extra element of surprise when the guest uncovers the dish.

Dishes should not be filled to the very brim. It is advisable to leave some space, which will reduce the risk of spilling the food when placing the lid on and during transport.

Ramequins and small dishes

Ramequins help maintain a consistent look to the tableware, even when serving sauces, dips, butter, condiments and small accompaniments.

They can be used to serve:

• sauces and dips,
• olive oil and bread accompaniments,
• flavoured butter,
• pickled vegetables,
• nuts and small snacks,
• mini desserts,
• tasting portions.

Fine Dine Nordic cups and saucers

The collection includes espresso cups and larger cups for coffee and tea, complemented by matching saucers. This allows the white, textured design to be maintained even when serving hot drinks.

A white cup beautifully showcases the colour of coffee, tea and milk foam. The set can be complemented with a stainless steel, gold, black or copper spoon, as well as a small dessert or pastry.

Porcelain for restaurants and signature cuisine

Fine Dine Nordic is ideal for establishments where the tableware is intended to complement the presentation of the dish, but should not dominate its colour scheme. The white surface is versatile, whilst the matt glaze and tree-bark texture give the pieces a distinctive look.

The collection can be used in:

• à la carte restaurants,
• fine dining restaurants,
• establishments serving signature cuisine,
• Asian and fusion restaurants,
• premium bistros,
• hotels and hotel restaurants,
• cafés,
• catering companies,
• at banquets, cookery demonstrations and photo shoots.

How can Fine Dine Nordic be incorporated into table settings?

White porcelain with a matt glaze complements both natural and modern materials well. It can be paired with:

• black Fine Dine Crust porcelain,
• wooden tables, boards and trays,
• linen napkins in natural colours,
• clear or coloured glass,
• black, steel, gold or copper cutlery,
• stone, concrete and metal,
• green plant decorations.

The textured surface is already a decorative element of the table setting, so it does not require many additional embellishments. Simple accessories help to maintain a clean and elegant arrangement.

Washing in commercial dishwashers

Fine Dine Nordic tableware is dishwasher-safe, which facilitates its regular use in professional catering.

To minimise the risk of damage, it is advisable to:

• place the tableware securely in the appropriate racks,
• avoid the rims coming into contact with one another during washing,
• do not overload the dishwasher racks,
• use detergents designed for catering tableware,
• regularly check the condition of the rims and surfaces,
• dry the tableware thoroughly before stacking.

Suitable for use in a microwave oven

Fine Dine Nordic tableware is suitable for use in microwave ovens. This allows you to reheat selected dishes and drinks without having to transfer them to another container.

After reheating, both the contents and the porcelain itself may become very hot. Remove the dish carefully, using an oven glove or a suitable handle if necessary.

Stacking selected items

Selected Fine Dine Nordic plates, bowls and cups are designed to be stacked. Stacking the tableware on top of one another allows for better use of shelf space and improves the organisation of the kitchen.

Please check the product details page for each item to confirm whether it is stackable. Tableware should be stacked securely, without forming piles that are too high or placing excessive weight on the items at the bottom.
