Artisan Wine Trays makes handcrafted plates in Bristol and Warren, Rhode Island, two towns with a deep history of boatbuilding and woodworking. These communities value precision, durability, and high-quality materials, and that same dedication carries over into every plate they create.
The Breakfast Club Plate was designed for those who appreciate both function and craftsmanship. If you start your morning with a Yeti, Tervis, or Stanley tumbler filled with coffee or tea, this plate provides a secure and stylish way to carry both your drink and a small meal. Inspired by the region’s heritage of sturdy vessels and finely crafted goods, it blends tradition with practical modern design.
A Thoughtfully Designed Plate for Easy Mornings
The Breakfast Club Plate eliminates the small hassles of breakfast, giving you a simple way to carry everything you need with just one hand. A secure drink holder keeps your tumbler or mug steady, while the flat surface offers enough space for a light meal or snack.
Its contoured grip rests comfortably against the wrist, reducing strain while making it easy to carry. No more awkward balancing acts with a plate in one hand and a cup in the other. Whether you are stepping onto your porch for fresh air, heading to your boat’s deck, or simply moving around the house, this plate keeps everything in place without requiring an extra surface. The Breakfast Club Plate allows you to relax and enjoy your coffee without interruption.
Inspired by New England Craftsmanship
Every Breakfast Club Plate reflects the same principles of balance, durability, and aesthetic appeal that Rhode Island boatbuilders have followed for centuries. A sailboat must withstand rough waters while maintaining sleek, graceful lines. A well-made serving piece follows the same logic, it should be sturdy enough for daily use yet visually appealing enough to complement any setting.
Artisan Wine Trays follows these same principles, ensuring that each plate is not just a functional item, but a well-crafted piece of art. Made in small batches, each plate is cut, sanded, and finished by hand. This hands-on approach ensures quality at every stage of production.
The wood selection process is just as meticulous. Each plate is crafted from solid Cherry, Mahogany, Maple, or Walnut.
Each wood type has its own unique characteristics:
Cherry has a warm, inviting color that deepens over time.
Mahogany carries a rich, dark tone and a nod to maritime tradition.
Maple has a light, clean aesthetic that brightens up any setting.
Walnut features deep, swirling grains that hint at coffee and chocolate tones.
Each plate is sealed with a food-safe finish, ensuring durability while preserving the natural beauty of the materials.
A Perfect Fit for Different Lifestyles
Designed with boaters in mind, the Breakfast Club Plate is built to handle gentle movement and uneven surfaces. Whether your boat is anchored in the harbor or floating on still water, the plate's balanced design ensures stability. Its stable design and wrist-supported grip ensure that your drink and snack stay secure, even when the boat shifts slightly with the current. Instead of setting your coffee on an unstable surface or struggling to balance a plate in one hand, you can comfortably hold everything in one place. It is a simple way to bring a little more ease to mornings spent on the water.
But it is not just for boat owners. Many people enjoy using the Breakfast Club Plate in different settings:
A quiet morning on the porch with a cup of coffee and a fresh pastry.
A backyard gathering where guests can hold their drinks and snacks effortlessly.
A cozy indoor breakfast without cluttering the table with extra dishes.
A remote work setup where a clean and organized space makes mornings more productive.
This plate fits seamlessly into different lifestyles, making it a versatile piece for everyday use.
A Personalized and Meaningful Gift
A handcrafted item always makes a thoughtful gift, and the Breakfast Club Plate is no exception. Whether for a housewarming, wedding, birthday, or holiday, this plate is both practical and personal.
For an added touch, custom engraving is available on Cherry and Maple for a crisp, visible design, while Mahogany and Walnut offer a more subtle engraved effect. Personalization options include names, initials, short messages, or even a small logo, making each plate one-of-a-kind.
A well-made, everyday essential like this is a gift that lasts, combining beauty and function in a way that mass-produced products cannot match.
Supporting Small-Batch Craftsmanship
Each plate from Artisan Wine Trays is carefully crafted, ensuring that no two pieces are exactly alike. This dedication to craftsmanship also means sustainability. Unlike disposable or cheaply made alternatives, these plates are built to last for years. By choosing a handmade item, customers are supporting local craftsmanship and environmentally conscious production methods.
The process of creating these plates follows traditional woodworking techniques while integrating modern materials. This blend of old and new is what makes Artisan Wine Trays stand out.
