Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber Cups 350ml 12oz (Pack of 12)

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber Cup is a 350ml earthenware-style cup produced in alumina vitrified ceramic with a reactive glaze finish. The reactive glazing process produces natural variation in colour and tone across each piece, meaning no two cups are entirely identical — a deliberate characteristic of the Aurora range rather than a quality inconsistency. The amber colourway gives a warm, earthy appearance well suited to contemporary and rustic table settings alike.

Aurora is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Steelite Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, which is a practical consideration for operations that already hold stock from either collection. Mixing across ranges for starters, mains, and desserts is a common approach in restaurants looking to build a cohesive but varied table presentation without committing to a single pattern throughout.

Alumina vitrified ceramic is a robust choice for front-of-house use. It handles repeated commercial dishwasher cycles better than standard earthenware, resists chipping at rims and bases under regular service conditions, and holds its glaze appearance over time — all relevant factors when you are running these pieces through a busy kitchen multiple times a day.

• Natural glaze variation adds visual interest without requiring mixed patterns
• Backwards compatibility with Revolution and Vesuvius reduces the need for a full range overhaul
• Suitable for hot and cold beverages across multiple service occasions
• Vitrified construction supports durability under commercial dishwasher use

These cups are well suited to independent restaurants, boutique hotels, and café operations looking to add considered detail to their table or counter presentation.
