Fine tableware
Founded by Rudy Surco, a chef-turned-ceramicist, the studio now brings together a dedicated team united by a shared vision: to create one-of-a-kind pieces that highlight the chef’s artistry and the ingredients prepared in the kitchen.
Having worked for years in fine-dining restaurants, his sensitivity to aesthetics, the beauty of food, and presentation on the plate led him to the craft of ceramic art. He trained at the European Institute of Ceramic Arts in Guebwiller.
Thanks to his previous experience in the kitchen, Rudy realized that the vessel is just as important as the contents. More than a ceramist, he considers himself a chef who creates plates.
Today, Plato Surco’s creations are used in some of the world’s finest gourmet restaurants.
All our pieces are handcrafted, in a constant pursuit of precision, texture, and emotion.
Our workshop
Every plate we create is the result of a collective effort.
In the studio, everyone contributes their own vision: potters, chefs, designers, chemists—all artists in their own right.
Our backgrounds are different, but they complement each other, enriching every creation.
What unites us? The desire to experiment, to push the limits of the material, to imagine the pieces that will come to life on your tables. Quite simply: walking this path together.
Every day is a new challenge, a unique exploration. This diversity is what makes our work so exciting.
Working with ceramics means creating, learning, and passing on knowledge—always with the same high standards and the same passion.
All our pieces are handcrafted. To ensure their durability and suitability for the demands of fine dining, we fire them at high temperatures, between 1280 and 1300°C. The textures and shapes of our plates are designed to complement restaurant tables.
(Un)consciously, we embrace the imperfections in our work to create a dynamic movement that harmonizes with the chefs’ plating.
