Product Description
The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber round plate is a 203mm stacking side or dessert plate produced in alumina vitrified ceramic. The Aurora range uses reactive glazes applied in combination, which produces natural variation in colour and surface depth across individual pieces — the amber colourway delivers warm, earthy tones that sit well against a range of food presentations and table settings.
Aurora is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, which gives operators flexibility when building or extending an existing tableware collection. This cross-range compatibility is a practical consideration for sites that want a coordinated table setting without committing to a single pattern across every plate size and format.
Alumina vitrified ceramic is a sensible choice for busy service environments. It offers good resistance to chipping and crazing under the conditions of regular commercial use, and the stacking profile means storage and handling between services is straightforward. The reactive glaze finish, while decorative, does not require any unusual care beyond standard commercial dishwasher cycles.
- Reactive glaze finish provides natural colour variation across the collection
- Compatible with Revolution and Vesuvius ranges for flexible table building
- Stacking design supports efficient storage and handling
- Suited to sides, desserts, and sharing plates at 203mm
- Alumina vitrified ceramic construction for durability in regular service
This plate size works well as a side or dessert plate across casual dining, hotel restaurant, and bistro settings. It is sold in a pack of 12, which suits operators looking to top up an existing Aurora or Vesuvius collection or introduce the range in modest quantities before committing further.
If you are planning a full tableware programme or are unsure how Aurora fits alongside your existing ranges, our team is happy to talk through your requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — Aurora is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Vesuvius and Revolution ranges from Steelite, so it can sit alongside those collections on the table without looking mismatched. This makes it a practical option for operators who want to introduce a reactive glaze element without replacing an entire tableware programme.
- The alumina vitrified ceramic body is well suited to regular commercial use, and the reactive glaze is fired as part of the ceramic process rather than applied as a surface coating, so it does not wear away with normal dishwasher cycles. Some natural variation between individual pieces is inherent to the reactive glaze process and is considered part of the aesthetic rather than a quality issue.
- At 203mm, this plate is most commonly used as a side plate, bread plate, or dessert plate in restaurant and hotel settings. If you need a larger format for main course presentation, Steelite offer additional sizes within the Aurora and Vesuvius ranges — our team can help identify the right plate sizes to match your specific menu and table layout.
