Product Description
The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber Bowl is a 135mm multipurpose bowl finished in a reactive amber glaze, sold in packs of twelve. Part of the Aurora range, these bowls are produced from alumina vitrified ceramic — a material widely used in commercial tableware for its strength and resistance to the thermal and mechanical stresses of busy service environments.
The reactive glaze process produces natural variation across individual pieces, giving the range its distinctive appearance without sacrificing the consistency and durability operators need. Because Aurora is backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, it can be introduced alongside existing Steelite tableware without disrupting the look of a cover. This makes it a practical option for operators who are extending or refreshing a presentation without committing to a complete range change.
In practical terms, alumina vitrified ceramic offers good resistance to chipping and crazing under the repeated handling, stacking, and dishwasher cycles typical of high-volume service. The 135mm format is well suited to sides, desserts, amuse-bouche, and small sharing portions, and the bowl depth makes it workable across a range of plating styles.
- Suitable for sides, desserts, and small plated portions
- Compatible with Revolution and Vesuvius ranges for mixed-cover flexibility
- Reactive glaze produces natural colour variation with a consistent amber tone
- Alumina vitrified ceramic construction handles commercial dishwasher cycles reliably
- Sold in packs of twelve, suitable for ordering in volume
This bowl is most at home in independent restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and any operation looking to add considered colour to the table without moving away from a proven Steelite body. If you are building a larger cover or matching to an existing range, it is worth discussing quantities and compatibility with the team before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. Alumina vitrified ceramic is the standard body material for commercial tableware precisely because it tolerates the high temperatures and mechanical handling of rack and conveyor dishwashers. That said, as with all reactive-glazed pieces, avoiding aggressive stacking directly on the glaze surface will help preserve appearance over time.
- Aurora is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Steelite Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, so mixing covers is straightforward. If you are unsure whether the amber colourway will work alongside your existing tableware, it is worth checking with us — we can help confirm compatibility before you commit to a quantity.
- That depends on your cover count, how many courses use this bowl size, and your dishwasher turnaround time during service. As a working guide, most operations aim for at least one and a half to two times their seated cover count per vessel type to allow for breakages and washing cycles. If you would like help working out the right quantity for your operation, the team is happy to advise.
