Product Description
The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber round tray is a 165mm stacking tray supplied in packs of twelve, made from alumina vitrified ceramic. The Aurora range uses reactive glazes applied in combination, producing natural variation in colour and surface tone across each piece. The amber colourway gives a warm, earthy finish that works well across a range of cuisine styles and plating presentations.
In service, alumina vitrified ceramic offers a practical balance of durability and presentation quality. The material is resistant to chipping under normal commercial handling and holds up well through repeated high-temperature dishwasher cycles, which matters in any operation running a busy covers turnaround. The stacking profile keeps storage manageable on a crowded shelf or pass.
From an operational standpoint, this tray suits a number of roles on the plate:
- Sides, amuse-bouche, and small starter courses
- Dessert presentation and pre-set table covers
- Sharing and small-plate service formats
- Display and counter presentation in casual dining settings
The Aurora range is backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius collections, which is useful for operations that already hold stock from either range and want to extend their tableware without introducing a visual mismatch across the floor.
At 165mm this is a compact piece, and operators should consider whether the size suits the portion style and plate architecture they're working with. For larger main course presentations, a wider plate from within the Aurora or Vesuvius range would be more appropriate.
If you're building a new tableware set or refreshing an existing one and want to talk through how the Aurora amber fits with your current collection, our team is happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Alumina vitrified ceramic is well suited to the high temperatures and mechanical demands of commercial dishwashing. The glaze is fired to withstand repeated cycles without significant loss of colour or surface integrity, though as with all reactive-glazed tableware, some gradual softening of the finish can occur over many years of heavy use.
- Yes — the Aurora range is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Steelite Revolution and Vesuvius collections. This makes it a practical choice for operations that want to introduce the amber colourway alongside existing stock without a full tableware refresh.
- At 165mm, this tray is best suited to sides, small plates, amuse-bouche, or dessert courses rather than full main course portions. If your service style requires a larger plate for mains, it is worth considering a wider piece from within the Aurora or Vesuvius range to ensure the portion presentation sits correctly on the plate.
