Churchill Studio Prints Raku Quartz Black Espresso Cups 105ml (12 Pack)
£74.80(£89.76 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Churchill Studio Prints Raku collection brings a distinctive decorative finish to espresso service. The quartz black colourway is inspired by the traditional Japanese Raku firing process, which produces expressive surface patterns with a handcrafted quality. These cups are made from Churchill's super vitrified body, which is meaningfully denser and more chip-resistant than standard vitrified porcelain — a practical consideration in any environment where cups are handled at pace and run through commercial dishwashers multiple times a day.
In a café, hotel, or restaurant setting, espresso cups take more punishment than almost anything else on the table. They cycle constantly between machine, pass, table, and dishwasher. The vitrified construction holds up well under that kind of throughput, and Churchill's Eco Glaze finish provides good resistance to staining and metal marking — the greyish scuffing that builds up on lighter cups from cutlery contact over time.
Practical advantages for day-to-day service include:
- Super vitrified body for improved chip resistance under heavy daily use
- Eco Glaze coating resists staining and metal marks
- Microwave safe for service flexibility
- Dishwasher safe for straightforward turnaround
- Consistent decorative finish across the pack for matched presentation
These cups are suited to cafés, hotel breakfast and lounge service, restaurants, and any operation looking to add a considered aesthetic to their coffee offering without compromising on durability. The 105ml capacity is appropriate for a standard single or double espresso serve. The Raku range sits within Churchill's broader Studio Prints collection, so coordinating pieces in the same pattern are available if a unified table setting is the goal.
If you are specifying crockery across multiple covers or want to confirm the right pack quantities for your service volume, the team is happy to help you work through the numbers.
Frequently asked questions
Are these cups suitable for high-volume café service?
Yes. The super vitrified body is designed to handle the repeated handling and dishwasher cycling that high-volume coffee service demands. That said, for very large operations running hundreds of covers a day, it is worth planning pack quantities carefully so you always have enough stock in rotation without over-purchasing.
Do these cups coordinate with other pieces in the Churchill Studio Prints Raku range?
The Raku pattern is part of Churchill's broader Studio Prints collection, and coordinating pieces such as saucers, side plates, and bowls are available in the same decorative finish. If you are specifying a full table setting, it is worth confirming which pieces are available in quartz black before ordering.
How should these cups be cared for to maintain the decorative finish?
These cups are rated for commercial dishwasher use, which is the standard cleaning method in most hospitality kitchens. The Eco Glaze coating is designed to resist the staining and metal marking that commercial dishwasher cycles can accelerate on lesser products. Avoiding abrasive cleaning agents will help preserve the surface finish over time.
