La Opala Soup Plate 6pcs White 9 0223

Our review

This is a six-piece set of plain white soup plates from La Opala, each measuring 225mm or 9 inches across. The depth is the point here: a deeper bowl profile holds soup, stew, or saucy dishes without spilling over the rim, which makes these plates useful for everyday family meals rather than just formal settings. The glazing is fired under controlled conditions, and La Opala states this gives the surface strong resistance to scratches and abrasions, so it should cope with regular cutlery use better than a basic unglazed or lightly finished plate. Plain white is the practical choice if you want pieces that blend with existing dinnerware or table linen. Before buying, confirm the 225mm diameter suits your cupboard space and that six plates matches how many people you usually serve. Compare with shallower rimmed soup plates if you mainly serve thick stews, and check whether you prefer a matching dinner set over buying this set on its own. Available on Sokonia.
