The Line-up Presentation plate ceramic blue / Ø 36 cm

Presentation plate The Line-up Serax: The Design Takes Center Stage

With this large “The Line-up” presentation plate, Annebet Philips takes the collection’s graphic language even further. Crafted from enamelled sandstone, this white piece measuring 36 × 34 cm is brought to life by hand-painted blue motifs that are deliberately irregular. Its scalloped edge further accentuates its expressive character and gives the plate a truly decorative presence. At the table, it can be used to showcase a dish or serve as the base for a more elaborate tableware arrangement.

Annebet Philips: Spontaneity as a Signature

Based in Amsterdam, Annebet Philips creates a playful, almost cartoon-like world built on simple shapes and deliberately imperfect contours. For The Line-up, she starts with quick, hand-drawn sketches and strives to preserve their freshness when translating them into Ceramics. Her lines never aim for geometric perfection; on the contrary, they retain the freedom and energy of the initial gesture.

The blue in the collection evokes the famous Delft blue, but with a decidedly contemporary interpretation. Annebet Philips retains the strong contrast between blue and white, while simplifying the decorative vocabulary in favor of lines that are more direct, freer, and more expressive.

What is a 36-cm presentation plate used for?

Its very large size is particularly well-suited for serving a main dish, a selection of dishes to share, or a culinary arrangement. It can also be used as a large presentation plate to showcase a smaller piece of tableware, or simply as a decorative element in the center of the table.

How can you make the most of its large size on a table?

Measuring 36 × 34 cm, this piece is imposing enough to anchor a table setting on its own. It can serve as a base for stacking plates or be used as a tray for appetizers, pastries, fruit, or dishes meant to be shared. Its scalloped edge and painted decoration also ensure it remains visible even when holding another piece of tableware.

How can you style “The Line-up” plate?

The Line-up was designed as a collection meant to be mixed and matched. This large plate can be paired with other sizes in the line to create layered arrangements and bring out the interplay between the various blue patterns. It also works well with white or solid-colored tableware, which further highlights its design.

Is The Line-up plate suitable for everyday use?

Yes. Made of enamelled sandstone, it is dishwasher- and microwave-safe. Its hand-painted decoration, however, retains an artisanal quality, with subtle variations that contribute to the personality of each piece.

With its striking shape, scalloped edge, and deliberately free-flowing blue lines, this “The Line-up” presentation plate is much more than just a simple serving dish. It’s a graphic piece that instantly adds character to the table.
