We will glaze a photograph onto a bone china plate, along with the wording you want around the rim. Many people ask us to print a photo on a plate, but we glaze the image and wording. It is possible to print a photo
onto a plate by a method called sublimation which involves a heat press. Because of the pressure required it is possible to print only onto the flat area of the plate, whereas by glazing we can place the wording around the rim. Glazing is also permanent; printing is not, it will fade in time.
Although this page is about photographs, we can glaze any design onto a plate, so if you want a company logo or a child’s painting we can do that too.
We will crop your photo into a circle to fit the plate. We will also be adding templates shortly that you can use to frame your photo if you wish – we have made many ‘mock’ royal wedding plates!
All our plates are 8 inches/20cm in diameter, and are made of white bone china. A lined gift box is available as an optional extra.
Price: From £22.50 depending on the plate style and whether you need a gift box.
Delivery: Your plate will be posted 2-3 working days after we receive your order. Occasionally a plate will not fire correctly firsdt time, in which case we make another. However, that takes 2 days longer. Should that happen we will let you know.
