This handmade ceramic dessert plate features a unique blue glaze pattern, crafted in our workshops in Eindhoven (Netherlands) and Nantes (France). Every plate is made individually using our MOCA dripping machine, so no two plates are ever identical. The blue intensity and rhythm vary between series. Whether you are building a complete table setting or looking for a unique gift, this handmade ceramic dessert plate is a perfect and lasting choice.
At 16cm diameter, this plate is ideal for side dishes, desserts, cheese boards, and pastries. Its compact size makes it versatile for any table.
The glaze pattern on each plate is applied as circular lines around the rim. We offer several variations:
Each plate is made individually, so the intensity of the blue and the thickness of the lines vary from one series to another. You can also find our ceramic plate Ø 19cm and our ceramic dinner plate Ø 24cm on our webshop.
First, we pour liquid porcelain into the plate mould. The plaster absorbs the water from the porcelain, creating a thickened layer against the mould. After 4 to 6 minutes, we remove the excess liquid porcelain and let the dessert plate dry before stamping ‘Moca’ on the inner rim. The next day, we clean the edges and surface of the fully dried plate. We then bisque-fire at a low temperature (around 1020 °C). Next comes the pattern: we drip blue glaze onto the plate using our MOCA dripping machine, then add a second transparent food-safe glaze. Finally, we fire a second time at a higher temperature (around 1240 °C).
The MOCA project was born from our graduation research at the Design Academy Eindhoven. It is part of the MOCA Tableware project by Studio Joachim-Morineau, presented at the Dutch Design Week 2024 in Eindhoven. Today, we continue this work in both our Eindhoven and Nantes workshops.
