blomus VAHLO Square Stoneware Plates, 3 Sizes

Rounded-square stoneware plates with a glossy reactive glaze, in dinner, dessert and side sizes, sold one at a time.

VAHLO plates by Sebastian Herkner are squares with generously rounded corners and a low rim, finished in a glossy glaze that freckles a little in the kiln. Three sizes cover the table: a 10.4" dinner plate, a 7.9" dessert plate and a 5.9" side plate. Each plate is sold singly, so you can order exactly the number you need in Moonbeam, Mirage Grey or both.

Why we carry it

We are an authorized blomus retailer and have been curating design-led pieces for the home since 2009. VAHLO is stoneware with a glossy reactive glaze and a shape all its own: squares and rectangles with rounded corners and soft edges, a clear alternative to round dinnerware. The glaze reacts to the kiln, so each piece shows light freckling and small shifts of tone. Moonbeam is a warm cream-beige; Mirage Grey is a light gray with a green cast. Bottoms are left unglazed. blomus is a family company run by the fourth generation of the Blome family in Sundern, Germany. It began in 1921 making bicycle parts, moved into copper, brass, pewter and stainless-steel design pieces in 1961, and has worked under the blomus name since 2000.

Buy once: durability and care

Dishwasher and microwave safe, according to blomus. Reactive glazing means every piece carries its own freckles and shading; no two are identical.
