Product Description
The Steelite Aurora Revolution Bluestone round plate is a 165mm stacking plate finished in a reactive bluestone glaze, sold in packs of twelve. It forms part of Steelite's Aurora range, which uses reactive glazes to produce natural variation in colour and surface character across individual pieces — meaning no two plates are identical, though all sit within the same tonal family.
Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, these plates are built to withstand the demands of regular commercial service. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a denser, harder-wearing body than standard porcelain, offering good resistance to chipping and crazing under the thermal cycling that comes with dishwasher use in busy operations. The stacking profile helps with storage and handling efficiency during service and turnaround.
The Aurora range is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, which is practically useful for operators who already have pieces from either collection and want to introduce new colours or plate sizes without fragmenting their tableware investment. The bluestone colourway works across a range of cuisine styles and presentation formats, from starters and sides through to desserts.
These plates are well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and hospitality venues looking for a consistent, characterful tableware aesthetic that holds up in daily service. They are sold in packs of twelve, which aligns with typical cover-based purchasing. If your operation requires a different plate diameter or a full range extension across bowl, platter, or coupe formats, the broader Aurora collection is worth exploring.
If you are building out a tableware range or matching to existing pieces, our team is happy to help you work through the options before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Alumina vitrified ceramic is well suited to commercial dishwasher use. The denser body offers better resistance to the thermal cycling and mechanical handling that high-volume dishwashers produce compared to standard porcelain, though as with all tableware, avoiding stacking overloads and using appropriate racks will extend the life of the glaze.
- Yes — the Aurora range is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges. This makes it practical to introduce Aurora Bluestone pieces alongside existing stock from either collection, which is useful when refreshing tableware gradually rather than replacing everything at once.
- That depends on your cover count, service style, and dishwasher turnaround time. A rough guide is to hold two to three times your seated cover count in any plate size you use heavily during service, but operations with slower dishwasher cycles or back-to-back sittings may need more. If you want to talk through quantities for your specific setup, our team can help.
