‘Convention’ banquet porcelain perfection

By James Russell: ‘Convention’ banquet porcelain perfection

October 7, 2015

Convention collection of banqueting porcelain from Tafelstern, exclusively distributed in the UK by Artis. Whether your function calls for 10 guests or 600 to be served, Convention masters banquets both large and small with a palette of pieces that combines style and functionality.

A Functional Choice

A beautifully presented place setting plays an essential role in the success of a party or celebration.  Convention, with its formal, elegant style, immediately catches the eye and yet delivers on the functional aspects that make life easier for F&B managers.  For example, it has rims that offer optimum resistance to chipping, meaning that plates, bowls and platters effortlessly resist the rigours of banquet service. The plates and platters are stackable, which is ideal for safe and space saving storage.

The collection has been created for ease of service. The deep and shallow 28cm plates fit perfectly into a typical warming trolley or can be covered with perfectly fitting cloches to ensure that the appropriate temperature of the dishes being served is maintained – a feature that makes Convention ideal for banquet service. The platters are generously proportioned and equally as suitable for the presentation and serving of fish dishes as they are for expansive arrangements of delicacies on a themed buffet.

The Convention range has been designed to mix and match with other Tafelstern collections. It works particularly well with chicory bowls from the Inspiration collection and the stacking cups and saucers of Relation Today.

Tafelstern Convention porcelain from Artis is made from premium quality hard porcelain fired at 1400ºC, which ensures a hard and impervious finish with a high resistance to cuts and scratches.  It comes with a 5-year professional glaze warranty and a lifetime warranty against edge chipping on plates, bowls and oval dishes that carry a “rolled edge”.

Christmas Offer

Sample list prices for the Convention range include the soup cup at £5.99; the 20cm deep plate at £4.85 and the 24cm oval platter costing £14.98. However, until Christmas 2015, with every 120 items of a single product code ordered, establishments will receive an additional 24 of the same item free, which Artis will despatch directly upon proof of sale.
