Dessert plate 925 sterling silver gold-plated Niello | Astra Gold | Ø 150mm

Astra Gold dessert plate – Purist design for stylish table culture

The Astra Gold dessert plate, crafted from 925 sterling silver, is the perfect versatile companion for stylish table settings: featuring a matte silver center, a gold-plated ring, a hand-engraved niello floral band around the rim, and a gold-plated outer edge. Its 150 mm diameter makes it ideal for desserts, fruit, pastries, bread, or small appetizers. Weighing only 140 grams, it is pleasantly lightweight and demonstrates with every use that true elegance needs no elaborate embellishments – its understated elegance is modern and timeless, allowing the hand-engraved niello decoration on the rim to stand out even more.

The Astra Gold dessert plate can be personalized – an engraving on the back makes it a unique gift for weddings, anniversaries or as a lasting memento of special moments.

Matte center, gold-plated ring and niello floral band

The Astra Gold dessert plate consists of three harmoniously connected sections: The center is matte and features brushed 925 sterling silver – simple, purist, and without any ornamentation. A wide, gold-plated ring encircles this matte center, forming the transition to the outer section. A hand-engraved niello floral band with deep black niello filling runs along the outer rim – the signature decoration of the Astra collection. The very edge is also gold-plated, creating an elegant finish.

This tripartite design – matte silver, gold-plated ring, niello band – is typical of the minimalist Astra Gold line and differs from the Astra Classic with its large niello floral clusters. The deliberate reduction demonstrates that less can be more: the matte center provides a neutral presentation surface for food, while the rim decoration elegantly frames the plate.

Versatile use – For dessert, fruit, bread and more

With a diameter of 150 mm, this dessert plate is perfectly sized for various occasions: as a dessert plate for cakes, tarts, panna cotta, or chocolate mousse; as a fruit plate for fruit and cut fruit; as a bread plate for breakfast or dinner; as an appetizer plate for small bites; or as a pastry plate for cookies and biscuits. The frosted center is neutral and doesn't distract from the food – it provides the perfect stage for culinary masterpieces.

Frequently asked questions about the Astra Gold dessert plate

For which dishes is the dessert plate suitable?

The Astra Gold dessert plate is versatile: use it as a dessert plate for cakes, tarts, panna cotta, chocolate mousse, or tiramisu; as a fruit plate for fruit and cut fruit; as a bread plate for breakfast or dinner; as an appetizer plate for small bites, antipasti, or tapas; or as a pastry plate for cookies, biscuits, and small cakes. The frosted center is neutral and doesn't distract from the food – it provides the perfect stage for culinary presentations.

Why does the plate have no decorations in the middle?

The Astra Gold dessert plate is the minimalist option for customers who prefer elegant understatement. The niello floral band around the rim showcases the craftsmanship of the SevChern manufactory without dominating the center. This minimalist design offers practical advantages: The frosted center provides a neutral presentation surface for food, allowing cakes, fruits, and desserts to be displayed to their best advantage. The rim decoration frames the food elegantly without being distracting.

Does the dessert plate match other Astra items?

Yes, perfect! The Astra Gold dessert plate harmonizes with all pieces in the Astra collection. The niello floral band around the rim is identical to the teacups, tumblers, butter dishes, and all other Astra pieces. Its minimalist elegance, free of embellishments in the center, makes it exceptionally versatile. Many customers use it to complement their tea service, tumblers, or butter dishes – they all coordinate perfectly.

Can the dessert plate be personalized?

Yes, the dessert plate can be personalized on the back. Upon request, we can engrave names, dates, initials, or a personal message. The engraving is professional and permanent. This personalization makes the dessert plate a unique gift for weddings, anniversaries, or special occasions. A set of six engraved dessert plates is an unforgettable gift for young couples or for a golden wedding anniversary. Simply contact us with your engraving request!

Can I put the dessert plate in the dishwasher?

We strongly recommend hand washing to protect the gilding and niello band. After use, rinse the plate with warm water and mild dish soap, then dry with a soft cloth. The high-gloss gilding and hand-engraved niello band are sensitive to harsh detergents and the mechanical stress of the dishwasher. The matte center can be polished with a silver polishing cloth if necessary. With careful hand washing, the dessert plate will remain pristine for decades.

The Astra Gold dessert plate is no ordinary plate. It's the minimalist choice for stylish presentations – crafted from solid 925 sterling silver, gold-plated, and adorned with a hand-engraved niello band. Every time you serve dessert, present fruit, or offer bread, you demonstrate that true elegance doesn't need elaborate embellishments. Measuring 150 mm in diameter and weighing just 140 grams, and offering the option for personalization, it's perfect for those who understand that less is often more.
