The 18 cm Cushion Plate in magnesium with matt black finish by F.lli Fontana Hotellerie is a service piece designed for those who transform the table into an extension of their creative vision. The asymmetrical organic shape «cushion-like,» oblique edges with variable relief (5–7.5 cm), and deep matte texture transform every plating into a visual narrative. Size of 18 cm, ideal for gourmet appetisers, amuse-bouche and refined finger food.

Technical Characteristics

  • Material: black solid magnesium, lightweight, resistant and professionally durable
  • Finish: sophisticated matte black that enhances the natural texture of the material
  • Diameter: 18 cm
  • Edge height: variable between 5 and 7.5 cm
  • Shape: asymmetrical cushion with sculptural profile

Why Choose the Matte Black Solid Finish

The integral black solid — not merely a surface coating — ensures that any micro-chips remain entirely discreet, preserving the piece's aesthetics over time and under intensive service conditions. The deep opaque colour creates extraordinary chromatic contrast with vibrant ingredients: carpaccios, aromatic herbs, coloured sauces emerge with a visual impact that no white plate can replicate.

Applications in Professional Kitchens

Conceived for Michelin-starred restaurants, luxury hotels and premium catering, the 18 cm Cushion Plate lends itself to both creative dark-luxury plating and minimalist presentations where form itself becomes a decorative element. The contemporary silhouette makes it a natural protagonist for editorial shoots and high-end social content.

The irregular shape and tactile texture add a sculptural element to mise en place, enhancing any composition — from gourmet appetiser to pre-dessert — with an uncommon scenic presence.
