The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz City Mug is a 340ml ceramic mug produced as part of Steelite's Aurora range. Aurora pieces are fired using reactive glazes, a process that produces natural variation in colour and surface tone across each piece. The Rose Quartz colourway delivers warm, muted pink tones with the kind of surface depth that suits contemporary hospitality presentation well. These are supplied in packs of twelve, making them practical to introduce into an existing service rotation or to build out a new table setting.

Aurora is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Vesuvius and Revolution ranges from Steelite, which is useful for operators who already hold stock from either collection and want to extend or refresh their presentation without replacing everything at once. The City shape is a straightforward, upright mug profile that works well for filter coffee, Americano, and standard hot beverage service. At 340ml it sits in the middle ground — large enough for a generous serve, manageable enough for a standard saucer pairing if required.

The alumina vitrified ceramic construction is worth noting for commercial use. Alumina vitrification increases the density of the body and improves chip resistance compared to standard earthenware or bone china alternatives, which matters in a busy café or restaurant environment where mugs are handled at pace and cycled through commercial dishwashers repeatedly. The reactive glaze finish is durable in practice, though as with all reactive-glaze pieces, minor surface variation between units is a characteristic of the process rather than a defect.

• Suitable for high-frequency commercial dishwasher cycles
• Compatible with Steelite Revolution and Vesuvius ranges for mixed-service use
• Reactive glaze produces natural colour variation — appropriate for artisan presentation
• Practical for café, restaurant, and hotel beverage service
• Supplied in a pack of twelve to support service rotation requirements

If you are building out a full table setting or want to discuss how Aurora works alongside other Steelite ranges you already hold, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz Bowl is a 110mm bowl finished in a reactive glaze that produces natural variation in colour and tone across each piece. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, it is a robust tableware option designed to withstand the demands of regular commercial service and repeated warewashing cycles.

Aurora uses a combination of reactive glazes to create a layered visual effect, with each bowl carrying subtle differences in its rose quartz finish. This characteristic is inherent to the reactive process and is part of the intended aesthetic rather than a quality inconsistency — worth bearing in mind when briefing front-of-house teams.

From an operational standpoint, this range offers a few practical advantages worth noting:

• Alumina vitrified ceramic construction provides good chip resistance under everyday service conditions
• Compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, which simplifies table setting across a mixed collection
• The 110mm size suits side dishes, desserts, amuse-bouche, and small portion presentations
• Supplied in packs of 12, which aligns well with standard cover sets and ordering multiples

Because Aurora is backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, operators already using either collection can introduce these bowls without disrupting an established table presentation. That flexibility is useful when refreshing a look gradually rather than replacing everything at once.

This bowl is well suited to restaurants, boutique hotels, and catering operations looking to add textural colour to their tableware without moving to a highly patterned design. The reactive finish works across a range of cuisine styles and plating approaches.

If you are building a full table setting around the Aurora collection or want to confirm compatibility with existing Steelite pieces, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Steelite Aurora range applies reactive glazes in combination to produce varied colour and contrast effects across each piece. The Rose Quartz colourway sits within the Vesuvius format, giving operators a bowl that carries visual character without relying on elaborate plating. Each bowl is produced in alumina vitrified ceramic, which is the standard body material for serious commercial tableware — it handles repeated thermal cycling, commercial dishwasher use, and the general demands of a busy pass without the fragility associated with finer stonewares.

One practical consideration worth noting is backward compatibility. The Aurora range works alongside both the Revolution and Vesuvius collections, which matters on sites where tableware has been built up over time or where a single range covers multiple menu sections. Operators can introduce Aurora pieces alongside existing stock without creating a mismatch at the table.

In terms of suitability, this bowl format works across a range of service types — sides, starters, desserts, and small main courses. The reactive glaze means no two pieces are entirely identical, which suits operators looking for a handcrafted aesthetic on the table without the fragility or cost that often comes with artisan ware. For high-volume operations running large covers, alumina vitrified ceramic is a sensible choice given its durability over extended service periods.

If you are building or refreshing a tableware range and want to discuss how Aurora fits alongside your existing collection or service style, the team is happy to talk it through.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz bowl is a mid-depth serving bowl finished in a reactive rose quartz glaze, produced from alumina vitrified ceramic. Reactive glazing produces natural variations in tone and depth across each piece, meaning no two bowls are exactly alike — a characteristic that is deliberate rather than a quality inconsistency.

In a busy service environment, the alumina vitrified ceramic construction is a practical consideration as much as an aesthetic one. This material is well regarded in hospitality tableware for its durability under the repeated thermal cycling and mechanical handling that comes with daily commercial use, including dishwasher service across multiple sittings.

The Aurora range is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, which is useful for operators who already use either collection and want to introduce complementary pieces without replacing a full cover set. The rose quartz glaze works across a range of cuisines and presentation styles, from composed desserts to sharing sides and main courses.

• Natural glaze variation adds visual interest to plate presentation
• Alumina vitrified ceramic body offers durability in commercial use
• Cross-compatible with Revolution and Vesuvius ranges
• Suitable for mains, sides, and dessert covers
• Sold in packs of 12, practical for cover-based ordering

This bowl is well suited to restaurants, hotels, and contract catering operations where consistent, considered tableware presentation matters. The pack-of-12 format aligns with standard cover planning, though operators with larger sections may wish to consider ordering in multiples.

If you are building out a full cover set or want to discuss how the Aurora range sits alongside other Steelite collections in your current setup, our team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz bowl is a 175mm piece from the Aurora collection, which uses reactive glaze combinations to produce natural colour variation and contrast across each individual piece. Because the glazing process is reactive by nature, no two bowls are identical — an effect that works well in operations looking to add visual interest to their plating without heavy reliance on garnish or presentation technique.

Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, these bowls are built to the durability standards expected of commercial tableware. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a well-regarded material in busy food service environments, offering good resistance to chipping and thermal shock under the regular handling, stacking, and warewashing cycles typical of a working kitchen.

The Aurora range is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, which makes it straightforward to extend or supplement an existing Steelite table setting without committing to a full replacement. This is a practical consideration for operators who have existing stock in either range and want to introduce the Rose Quartz colourway selectively — perhaps for a seasonal menu or a dedicated tasting course.

• Reactive glaze finish creates natural variation — each piece is slightly individual
• Compatible with Revolution and Vesuvius ranges for flexible table builds
• Suited to starters, sides, desserts, and sharing presentations
• Sold in packs of 12, practical for consistent service covers

These bowls are well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and any operation where table presentation is a considered part of the guest experience. If you're building a table setting across multiple Steelite ranges or need guidance on cover quantities relative to your service volume, we're happy to help you work through the options before you order.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz Tulip Bowl is a small-format serving piece from Steelite's Aurora collection, finished in a distinctive rose quartz reactive glaze. The tulip bowl form is well suited to amuse-bouche, petit fours, sauces, pre-desserts, and small side portions, offering chefs a practical canvas for contemporary plating without requiring oversized tableware.

Aurora's reactive glazing process produces natural variation in colour and surface tone, meaning no two pieces are entirely identical. This is an intentional characteristic of the range rather than a quality inconsistency, and it lends the collection a handcrafted quality that works well across fine dining, modern bistro, and tasting menu formats. The rose quartz colourway sits within the broader Aurora palette and is designed to be compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, which gives operators flexibility when building or extending a tableware scheme across multiple courses.

Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, these bowls are well suited to the demands of busy professional kitchens. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a recognised standard in commercial tableware for its durability, chip resistance, and consistent performance through repeated dishwasher cycles.

• Compatible with existing Aurora, Revolution, and Vesuvius tableware ranges
• Reactive glaze finish adds visual interest without relying on costly hand-decoration
• Consistent performance through commercial dishwasher cycles
• Small format suits amuse-bouche, sauces, sides, and tasting menus
• Supplied in a pack of 12, practical for service cover planning

If you are building a full table scheme or need to assess whether this piece integrates with your existing Steelite stock, our team is happy to help you work through the options before you order.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz Tulip Bowl is a small-format serving bowl from Steelite's Aurora range, finished in a reactive glaze that produces the characteristic Rose Quartz colouring with natural variation between pieces. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, it is built to the standard expected of commercial tableware — resistant to chipping and thermal shock under the conditions of regular service use and commercial dishwashing.

The tulip profile and compact diameter make these bowls practical for a range of plating applications: amuse-bouche, pre-dessert courses, side portions, or sharing-style small plates. Because no two pieces fired with a reactive glaze are entirely identical, the bowls lend a handcrafted quality to the table without the fragility of artisan pottery. The Aurora range is designed to be backwards compatible with Steelite's Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, so operators who already carry pieces from those collections can mix presentations without a jarring mismatch in style.

• Consistent piece-to-piece profile suited to structured plating
• Reactive glaze finish adds visual interest without novelty tableware fragility
• Backward compatibility with Revolution and Vesuvius extends existing table presentations
• Alumina vitrified ceramic withstands commercial dishwasher cycles reliably
• Sold in a pack of 12, practical for building or topping up covers

These bowls are most appropriate for restaurants, bistros, and hotel dining rooms where presentation is considered and tableware turnover is moderate to high. The pack size of 12 suits operators building out cover numbers or supplementing an existing collection. Sites running very high cover volumes may find it more practical to order multiple packs to maintain adequate stock through service.

If you are putting together a broader table setting or are unsure whether the Rose Quartz finish will work alongside your current Steelite pieces, we are happy to talk through what you already have before you order.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz Tulip Bowl is a 140mm bowl finished in a reactive glaze that produces natural colour variation and tonal contrast across each piece. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, the Aurora range is produced to Steelite's commercial durability standards and is designed for repeated use in busy food service environments. No two pieces will be identical, which is characteristic of the reactive glaze process and part of the intended aesthetic.

In service, alumina vitrified ceramic offers good resistance to chipping and thermal shock compared with standard earthenware, making it a practical choice for operations running high cover volumes where tableware takes consistent daily handling. The tulip bowl profile suits a range of presentations — desserts, sides, amuse-bouche, and small portion dishes — without being prescriptive about any single use.

A practical consideration worth noting is that reactive glaze finishes can show variation between production batches. Operators building a matched table scheme should order sufficient stock upfront rather than topping up later and expecting an exact colour match. The Aurora range is backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, which gives greater flexibility when combining pieces across an existing table setting.

This bowl is well suited to restaurants, hotels, and contract catering operations looking for tableware that sits between plain white and heavily decorated options — offering visual interest without being pattern-specific. It fits naturally into contemporary and informal dining formats as well as more considered plating environments.

If you are building a full table scheme or need guidance on combining Aurora with other Steelite ranges, the team is happy to help you plan quantities and compatibility before you order.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz round tray is a small-format serving piece, 75mm in diameter, produced in alumina vitrified ceramic with a reactive glaze finish that creates natural variation in colour and depth across each piece. The rose quartz colourway sits within the broader Aurora range, which is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius collections, giving operators flexibility to mix pieces across ranges without visual inconsistency.

In service, these trays are well suited to amuse-bouche, pre-dessert, or small side presentations where portion size is tightly controlled and plate aesthetics carry weight. The reactive glaze means no two pieces are identical, which suits informal fine dining and contemporary restaurant settings where a handcrafted appearance is part of the presentation intent. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a durable material that handles the demands of regular commercial dishwashing and daily service cycles reliably.

Practical advantages for front-of-house teams include:

• Compatible with Revolution and Vesuvius ranges for flexible table styling
• Reactive glaze produces natural colour variation for distinctive presentation
• Alumina vitrified ceramic withstands regular commercial dishwasher use
• Sold in packs of 12 to support consistent cover counts
• Small 75mm format suited to snack, amuse, or side presentations

These are purely front-of-house pieces requiring no installation considerations beyond storage. Stack depth and breakage allowance are worth factoring when ordering for high-cover operations — a single pack of 12 may not be sufficient as a standalone order for busier services.

The Aurora Vesuvius range is best suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and casual fine dining operations where tableware contributes to the overall guest experience. For venues requiring more neutral or robust everyday tableware, plainer alternatives within the Steelite catalogue may be a more practical fit.

If you are building a tableware specification across multiple ranges or need guidance on quantities for your cover count, we are happy to help you work through it.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz round tray is a small-format piece from Steelite's Aurora collection, produced in alumina vitrified ceramic and finished with a reactive glaze that creates natural variation in colour and tone across each piece. At 103mm across, these are compact by design — suited to amuse-bouche, petits fours, sides, condiments, or dessert presentations where a distinct look is wanted without a large footprint on the table.

Aurora's reactive glaze process means no two pieces are identical, which gives the range a handcrafted quality that works well in contemporary dining rooms. The Rose Quartz colourway carries warm blush tones with the depth and contrast typical of the Aurora family. Because the Aurora range is backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius collections, operators already using either of those ranges can introduce Aurora pieces without breaking the visual coherence of a table setting.

Alumina vitrified ceramic is a practical choice for commercial tableware. It is significantly harder and more chip-resistant than standard earthenware, which matters when pieces are being handled repeatedly across multiple services. The glaze holds its appearance well through commercial dishwasher cycles, which is important given the finish is a central part of the product's appeal.

These trays are sold in packs of 12, which suits opening orders or building out an existing cover count. Consider how many covers you run and how your wash cycle timing aligns with service — smaller piece formats like this can move through a section quickly and it is worth having adequate stock in rotation.

If you are building a full Aurora presentation or want to talk through cover quantities and how the range sits alongside your existing tableware, we are happy to help work through the details before you order.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz round tray is a small-format serving piece from Steelite's Aurora collection, supplied in packs of twelve. Measuring 140mm across, it sits within the Vesuvius range and is produced in alumina vitrified ceramic — a material well regarded in commercial tableware for its resistance to chipping and its ability to withstand the rigours of daily professional use, including repeated dishwasher cycles.

The Aurora glaze process uses reactive glazes applied in combination, which produces natural variation in colour and tonal contrast across each piece. The Rose Quartz colourway delivers warm, muted tones that work well as an accent alongside neutral or complementary tableware. Because Aurora is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, operators who already use either of those collections can introduce Aurora pieces without losing visual coherence across the table.

At this size, these trays are suited to sides, amuse-bouche, petit fours, condiments, or small dessert portions. They work equally well in casual dining, tasting-menu environments, and hotel food and beverage operations where presentation detail matters.

• Alumina vitrified ceramic construction handles daily professional service reliably
• Reactive glaze finish creates natural tonal variation, so no two pieces look completely identical
• Compatible with existing Revolution and Vesuvius tableware for flexible styling
• Supplied in twelves, practical for ordering to cover a full section

If you are building out a full Aurora cover or combining pieces across the Vesuvius range, it is worth considering how the Rose Quartz colourway coordinates with your existing stock. Our team is happy to talk through the collection if you would like a second opinion before placing an order.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz round tray is a 165mm presentation piece finished in a reactive glaze that produces natural colour variation across each piece. Because the glaze is reactive rather than flat, no two items are identical — the rose quartz colourway creates warm, earthy tones with subtle contrast that work well across a range of plating styles. These are supplied as a pack of twelve, making them a practical quantity for both initial roll-outs and topping up an existing cover.

Manufactured from alumina vitrified ceramic, this is a robust material well proven in commercial front-of-house use. It handles the thermal and mechanical stresses of busy service — repeated passes through commercial dishwashers, stacking in service stations, and the general wear of a working kitchen — better than standard earthenware. The glaze is designed to resist chipping and crazing under normal service conditions.

In practical terms, the Aurora range is compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius collections, which gives operators flexibility when building a tabletop presentation without being locked into a single pattern. The 165mm size suits sides, sharing accompaniments, small desserts, and amuse-bouche service depending on the cover style.

• Reactive glaze finish provides natural tonal variation across each piece
• Compatible with Revolution and Vesuvius ranges for mixed presentation
• Alumina vitrified ceramic withstands commercial dishwasher cycles reliably
• Suited to sides, desserts, and small-plate service formats

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Rose Quartz round plate is a 203mm (8") ceramic plate finished with reactive glazes that produce natural colour variation and tonal contrast. Each piece carries its own character, with the rose quartz colourway delivering warm, earthy tones that work across a range of plating styles. Sold in packs of 12, these are made from alumina vitrified ceramic — a material chosen for its strength and durability in commercial service environments.

In busy restaurant and hospitality settings, tableware takes considerable punishment. Alumina vitrified ceramic is well suited to the stacking, warewashing cycles, and everyday handling that commercial operations demand. The reactive glaze finish is applied in combination layers, which means surface variation is intentional and consistent as a design choice rather than a quality inconsistency — something worth communicating to front-of-house teams unfamiliar with the range.

A practical consideration for operators already using Steelite ranges: Aurora is backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius collections. This allows kitchens to introduce the Aurora colourway without replacing existing inventory entirely, which is a meaningful advantage when refreshing a table setting in stages or across multiple sites.

These plates are well suited to independent restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and casual dining operations looking to add considered colour to their table presentation. The 203mm size positions them as a side plate, dessert plate, or small starter format depending on the cuisine and service style. For operations requiring a full range of cover sizes, the Aurora collection is available across multiple formats.

If you're building a table setting across several plate sizes or want to discuss how Aurora fits alongside your existing Steelite ranges, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber Cup is a 227ml (8oz) ceramic cup finished with a reactive glaze that produces natural colour variation across each piece. Because the glaze reacts during firing, no two cups are identical — the amber tones shift subtly from cup to cup, giving a handcrafted feel while remaining a commercially produced item. The cups are manufactured from alumina vitrified ceramic, the standard body material used across Steelite's professional tableware ranges.

In service, alumina vitrified ceramic offers reasonable chip resistance for front-of-house use and handles the thermal cycling of commercial dishwashers reliably over time. The Aurora range is designed to sit alongside both the Revolution and Vesuvius collections, which is useful for operators who want to build a mixed tabletop presentation without committing to a single glaze or colour across every piece.

Practical points worth considering for operators:

• Reactive glaze produces natural colour variation — consistent with the range, not a defect
• Compatible with Revolution and Vesuvius ranges for mixed tabletop presentation
• Alumina vitrified ceramic body suited to commercial dishwasher use
• Sold in packs of 12, suited to smaller initial orders or topping up existing stock
• Amber glaze works well in informal dining, café, and brunch-style settings

The pack size of 12 is practical for smaller operations or for trialling the colour alongside an existing tableware scheme before committing to a larger order. For higher-volume sites or those equipping a full dining room from scratch, it is worth considering whether a larger pack quantity would be more cost-effective.

If you are putting together a tableware scheme and want to talk through how the Aurora range fits with other Steelite collections, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber City Mug is a small-format espresso and coffee mug from Steelite's Aurora range, finished in a warm amber tone achieved through reactive glaze firing. Each piece carries natural variation in colour and depth — a characteristic of the reactive glaze process rather than a defect — which gives the range a handcrafted aesthetic well suited to contemporary café and restaurant settings.

Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, these mugs are built to withstand the rigours of commercial dishwashing and daily front-of-house handling. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a robust body material commonly specified in hospitality tableware precisely because it resists chipping at rims and edges better than standard porcelain under repeated service conditions.

The Aurora range is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges within the Steelite portfolio, which makes it straightforward to build a cohesive table setting across different piece types without needing to standardise on a single collection.

If you are building out a full table setting or need guidance on mixing pieces across the Aurora, Revolution, and Vesuvius ranges, our team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber City Mug is a 340ml earthenware-style mug produced in alumina vitrified ceramic and finished with a reactive glaze that creates natural variation in colour and tone across each piece. The amber colourway sits within Steelite's Aurora range, which is designed to complement both the Revolution and Vesuvius collections — useful for operators who already hold either range and want to extend or refresh their table presentation without starting from scratch.

In a busy café, hotel breakfast service, or restaurant front-of-house setting, reactive-glaze ceramics like these are valued as much for their practicality as their appearance. The alumina vitrified ceramic body is a robust, commercially proven material that handles the repeated thermal cycling of dishwasher service well, and holds up under the stacking and handling demands of high-throughput operations. The natural colour variation between pieces is an inherent characteristic of the reactive glaze process rather than a defect — something worth explaining to front-of-house staff so it is presented correctly to guests.

• Sold in packs of 12, suited to batch restocking or initial range setup
• Compatible with the broader Steelite Revolution and Vesuvius collections
• Reactive glaze finish creates natural tonal variation — no two pieces are identical

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber Bowl is a 175mm serving bowl from Steelite's Aurora collection, produced in alumina vitrified ceramic with a reactive glaze finish that creates natural variation in colour and tone across each piece. The amber colourway sits within the Vesuvius range, which is designed around earthy, textured aesthetics that suit contemporary plating styles across a wide range of cuisines.

Alumina vitrified ceramic is a well-regarded choice for commercial tableware. It offers greater density and chip resistance than standard porcelain, which makes it a practical option for operations that put tableware through sustained daily use and repeated dishwasher cycles. The reactive glaze process means no two pieces are identical, though production batches are controlled closely enough that pieces read consistently as a set on the pass.

From an operational standpoint, the Aurora bowls offer a few practical advantages worth noting:

• Compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, allowing mixed presentation across a table or menu
• Alumina vitrified construction handles heavy dishwasher use reliably
• Reactive glaze finish helps minor surface wear blend naturally over time
• Sold in packs of 12, suited to table cover planning and par stock management
• 175mm diameter makes these appropriate for starters, sides, and desserts as well as smaller mains

These bowls are well suited to restaurants, hotels, and gastropubs looking to build a cohesive, tactile table setting without committing to a single uniform colour. The backwards compatibility with the wider Vesuvius and Revolution ranges is genuinely useful for operators who want to extend an existing collection or introduce colour variation across courses.

If you're working out quantities for a new opening, a refurbishment, or a specific cover count, the team is happy to help you plan stock levels and confirm range compatibility before you order.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber Tulip Bowl is a small-format piece from the Aurora collection, designed for amuse-bouche, pre-dessert courses, sides, or condiment presentation. At 70mm across, it sits comfortably on a pass or tasting plate without overwhelming a composed dish. The distinctive amber finish comes from reactive glazing — a process that produces natural variation in colour and tone, so each piece carries a slightly individual character while remaining consistent enough for uniform table settings.

Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, these bowls are built to handle the rigours of regular professional use. The material is denser and harder-wearing than standard porcelain, which matters when pieces are being handled repeatedly through service, washing, and stacking. The reactive glaze finish is applied and fired in a way that holds up well to commercial dishwasher cycles without significant fading or crazing over time.

From an operational standpoint, the Aurora range is designed to work alongside existing Steelite Revolution and Vesuvius pieces, which is a practical advantage for kitchens that want to extend a presentation style without committing to an entirely new range. Key practical points include:

• Backward compatibility with Revolution and Vesuvius ranges for mixed presentation
• Reactive amber glaze creates natural variation — suits artisan and modern plating styles
• Alumina vitrified ceramic withstands heavy commercial dishwasher use
• Small tulip format suits tasting menus, sides, and amuse-bouche presentation
• Sold in packs of 12, practical for par stock management

These bowls are well suited to restaurants, hotels, and event caterers running tasting or multi-course menus where presentation detail matters. They are a considered choice rather than a bulk workhorse piece, and the amber colourway works best where a warm, earthy aesthetic fits the wider table setting. Kitchens needing larger serving formats or plainer white ware will find other options in the broader Steelite catalogue more appropriate.

If you're building or extending a tableware range and want to talk through how the Aurora pieces sit alongside your existing service ware, our team is happy to help.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber Tulip Bowl is a small-format tableware piece from Steelite's Aurora collection, produced in alumina vitrified ceramic.

• Alumina vitrified ceramic construction handles daily commercial dishwasher use reliably
• Consistent 103mm sizing supports uniform portion presentation across all covers
• Supplied in packs of 12, practical for stocking to cover a full service without excessive outlay

There are no electrical or installation requirements for this product. Storage space for stacking should be considered when ordering multiple packs, particularly for larger operations. As with all reactive-glazed tableware, some natural variation in shade and pattern between pieces is expected and is not a defect.

These bowls are a practical choice for independent restaurants, bistros, and hotel dining rooms looking to add visual interest to table presentation without committing to a fully uniform tableware set. Operations that require a closer colour match across large cover numbers may wish to discuss ordering and batch considerations with us before placing a larger order, as reactive glazes can vary between production runs.

If you're building a tableware programme or matching these into an existing Steelite range, we're happy to talk through what works well together.

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber Round Stacking Trays are small-format ceramic pieces designed for amuse-bouche, sides, condiments, and dessert presentation. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, they are produced using reactive glazing techniques that create natural colour variation across the amber tone — meaning no two pieces are entirely identical, which is a deliberate characteristic of the range rather than a quality concern.

In a busy front-of-house environment, consistency of presentation matters. These trays stack neatly, which reduces clutter on pass and service areas and makes storage straightforward during turnaround between covers. The alumina vitrified ceramic construction is well suited to the demands of commercial dishwashing and the knocks of daily service, offering reasonable durability for a decorative tableware item of this type.

• Reactive amber glaze creates individual character while maintaining a coherent table aesthetic
• Stackable form supports tidy storage and efficient pass management
• Compatible with the broader Aurora, Revolution, and Vesuvius ranges for mixed presentation
• Alumina vitrified ceramic offers good resistance to chipping under normal service conditions
• Sold in a pack of 12, practical for setting up consistent cover runs

These trays are best suited to restaurants, hotels, and event caterers who use small-format tableware as part of a considered table presentation. They work particularly well within operations already using the Steelite Vesuvius or Revolution ranges, as Aurora is backwards compatible with both. For very high-volume operations or those with heavy-handed service teams, it is worth noting that decorative reactive-glaze ceramics are not indestructible — a more robust utility piece may be more practical as a workhorse item.

If you are building out a table setting across multiple ranges or want to confirm compatibility with existing Steelite pieces, we are happy to help you work through the options before you commit to a quantity.

These 100mm round stacking trays are part of Steelite's Aurora range, finished in the Vesuvius Amber colourway. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, they carry the reactive glaze treatment that Aurora is known for — each piece takes on subtle tonal variation through the firing process, meaning no two items are completely identical. The result is a warm amber tone with natural depth and contrast that suits a range of plating styles.

In practice, these trays work well for sides, small starters, amuse-bouches, or dessert accompaniments where a compact, stackable piece keeps service tidy without sacrificing presentation. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a well-regarded material for front-of-house ware — it handles the routine demands of busy service, including repeated racking, dishwasher cycling, and the general handling that comes with a working kitchen.

A few points worth considering for operators building or extending a collection:

• Reactive glaze finish produces natural colour variation between pieces — consistent as a collection, not identical piece by piece
• Alumina vitrified ceramic construction suited to commercial dishwasher use
• Stacking profile supports efficient storage and service management
• Aurora range is backwards compatible with Steelite's Revolution and Vesuvius ranges
• Sold in packs of 12, which suits both initial builds and top-up ordering

The backwards compatibility with Steelite's Revolution and Vesuvius ranges is a practical consideration for operators who already run those collections — Aurora pieces can be introduced alongside existing stock without disrupting the visual language of the table.

If you're unsure how these fit into your existing tableware setup or want to discuss quantities for a new cover count, we're happy to help you work through the options.
