Materials and Types
Fish and seafood plates at Dims Studio come in various materials. Ceramic is popular for its handmade feel and substantial quality, often glazed in glossy or matte finishes. Porcelain is also used for finer, thinner plates where details really shine. Additionally, stoneware offers a more rustic surface and often withstands both dishwasher and oven. Some designs feature fish or seafood reliefs, while others are painted with motifs like crabs, lobsters, or oysters. Colors range from deep blues and greens to pastels and classic white surfaces.
Sizes and Dimensions

- Seafood serving platters often measure 25-35 cm in length, sometimes oval or shaped like a fish.
- Shrimp plates and mussel platters are often 18-24 cm wide, providing room for both seafood and sides.
- Most plates have a slightly raised edge to prevent liquids from spilling.
