Product Description
The Steelite Aurora Revolution Granite City Mug is a 285ml ceramic mug from Steelite's Aurora range, finished with a reactive glaze that produces a natural variation in colour and tone across each piece. The granite colourway delivers an earthy, textured appearance that sits comfortably within contemporary hospitality presentation styles. These are sold in packs of twelve, making them a practical choice for operators stocking or restocking a service environment.
Aurora mugs are made from alumina vitrified ceramic, a material widely used in commercial tableware for its durability and resistance to the repeated thermal cycling of busy service — dishwasher runs, hot liquids, and general handling across multiple sittings. The reactive glaze process means no two pieces are entirely identical, which adds character to the presentation without requiring any additional effort from front-of-house teams.
From a practical standpoint, the range is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, so operators already using either collection can introduce Aurora pieces without creating a mismatch on the table or at the counter. This makes it a sensible option when refreshing a tableware scheme incrementally rather than replacing everything at once.
- Consistent with Revolution and Vesuvius ranges for mixed-range flexibility
- Reactive glaze finish gives natural tonal variation across pieces
- Alumina vitrified ceramic construction suited to high-turnover service
- Well suited to café, restaurant, hotel, and contract catering environments
This mug is well suited to cafés, restaurants, hotels, and any hospitality setting where tableware appearance matters alongside practical durability. If you are building or extending a larger tableware scheme and want guidance on mix-and-match compatibility or volume pricing, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a standard material in commercial tableware specifically because it withstands the high temperatures and detergents used in commercial dishwashers. As with all reactive-glazed pieces, reasonable handling will help preserve the glaze finish over time.
- Yes, Aurora is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges. This means operators can introduce Aurora pieces into an existing scheme without a jarring mismatch, which is particularly useful when refreshing tableware in stages rather than doing a full replacement.
- That depends on your turnover rate and dishwasher cycle time. For a small café running continuous service, 12 mugs may be sufficient as a working set with a short wash cycle. Higher-volume sites or those with longer between-wash intervals will typically want to hold two or three packs to maintain adequate cover throughout a shift. If you are unsure how many to order for your operation, we are happy to talk it through.
