The Serax Zuma dinner plate by Kelly Wearstler is a poetic fusion of craftsmanship and contemporary design. Each piece captures the raw beauty of natural textures, expressed through refined glazes and earthy tones that evoke landscapes shaped by time. The Zuma collection embodies Wearstler’s instinctive approach to form — tactile, layered, and full of quiet sophistication — bringing a sense of warmth and modern artistry to every dining experience.
Organic Elegance in Porcelain
Handcrafted in fine porcelain and finished with delicate, hand-applied glazes, this Plate reflects the perfect balance between imperfection and design precision. The serax zuma dinner plate XS and its larger versions (18, 23, 28, and 33 cm) are available in three harmonious finishes — Salt, Sienna, and Pacific. Each glaze tells a story: Salt captures soft neutrality, Sienna adds earthy warmth, and Pacific embodies the calm depth of ocean hues. Together, they form a versatile palette that complements any interior aesthetic within Serax Tableware.
Material Craft and Functional Design
Each plate is designed for food use and fully dishwasher safe, ensuring lasting beauty and durability. The tactile, slightly irregular glaze gives the sandy glaze plate a sense of individuality — no two pieces are exactly alike. Lightweight yet sturdy, it transitions seamlessly from breakfast to dinner, from casual gatherings to refined hospitality. The craftsmanship reveals Kelly Wearstler’s eye for organic texture and sculptural harmony, a hallmark of her creative dialogue with Serax Cutlery and complementary serveware lines.
Styling and Presentation
This chef-style ceramic plate invites creativity in food presentation. Its subtly curved rim and soft matte sheen highlight ingredients with natural grace, making it a favourite among culinary professionals and design enthusiasts alike. Wondering how to serve on small plates? Use the 18 cm size for composed starters or desserts, and layer with larger formats to build rhythm and contrast across a multi-course setting. The Zuma collection encourages tactile and visual exploration, turning every meal into a curated experience.
