Elia
Elia Glacier Fine China Stackable Espresso Cups 100ml (Pack of 6)
£49.65(£59.58 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Elia Glacier espresso cup is a 100ml fine china cup finished in a soft, creamy glaze with gently curved sides. It sits within Elia's Glacier tableware range, which is designed to work across both classic and contemporary covers without looking out of place in either setting.
For coffee service, the cup's construction is the more practical consideration. It is super vitrified, meaning the body is fired to a higher density than standard porcelain, which translates directly into better resistance to chipping and cracking under the daily pressures of commercial use — stacking, machine washing, and the occasional knock on a hard worksurface. The glazed finish is resistant to surface crazing, helping the cup hold its appearance through repeated high-temperature wash cycles.
From an operational standpoint, the stackable design keeps storage manageable on busy service stations where space is rarely generous. For hospitality operators running espresso as part of a broader beverage menu, consistency of presentation matters, and the Glacier range is well suited to that requirement.
- Stackable profile supports compact storage on service stations
- Super vitrified construction resists chipping in daily commercial use
- Resistant glaze finish retains appearance through repeated machine washing
- Neutral creamy glaze works across different cover styles and table settings
These cups are sold in packs of six, which suits operators topping up an existing set or trialling the range before committing to a larger quantity. For higher-volume sites or larger beverage operations, bulk quantity options may be worth exploring.
If you are building out a new tableware set or want to confirm compatibility with your existing Glacier pieces, the team is happy to help.
Frequently asked questions
Are these cups suitable for commercial dishwasher use?
Yes. The super vitrified construction and resistant glaze are designed to withstand the high temperatures and detergents used in commercial glasswasher and dishwasher cycles. Consistent appearance through repeated machine washing is one of the practical reasons operators choose vitrified fine china over standard porcelain for busy service.
How well do these stack, and will they fit standard cup storage racks?
The cups are designed with a stackable profile, which keeps them stable when stored in columns on service stations or shelving. For rack compatibility, it is worth confirming the cup diameter against your existing rack configuration — the team can help with that if you are unsure.
Is the Glacier range suitable for pairing with other Elia tableware lines?
The Glacier range is a standalone Elia collection, and its neutral creamy glaze is designed to sit comfortably across different settings. Whether it pairs well with other Elia lines depends on the overall look you are building — if you are mixing ranges, it is worth speaking with the team to sense-check the combination before ordering.
