Product Description
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — the Aurora Vesuvius range is backwards compatible with both the Steelite Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, so these bowls can sit alongside pieces from those collections without looking mismatched. This makes them a practical choice if you're extending an existing table setting rather than starting from scratch.
- Alumina vitrified ceramic is denser and more durable than standard porcelain, which makes it a well-established choice for commercial tableware that goes through multiple dishwasher cycles per day. It tends to offer better resistance to chipping and crazing over time, though like all ceramic tableware it benefits from careful handling during stacking and sorting.
- A common approach is to hold two to three times your seated cover count in bowls, depending on how quickly your operation turns tables and how many courses use the same format. If you'd like help working out the right quantity for your service model, the team can advise based on your cover count and menu structure.
