Product Description
The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Amber Tulip Bowl is a small-format tableware piece from Steelite's Aurora collection, produced in alumina vitrified ceramic. The reactive glaze process gives each piece its distinctive amber tones with natural variation in colour and contrast — no two pieces are identical, which is characteristic of this type of finish and part of the intended aesthetic.
In a busy service environment, these bowls are well suited to amuse-bouche, pre-starters, sides, sauces, and dessert portions. The tulip profile helps contain sauces and liquids without the risk of spill during service, and the 103mm diameter keeps portion sizing consistent across covers. Being alumina vitrified ceramic, the bowls offer good durability and chip resistance under regular commercial use, including frequent handling, stacking, and dishwasher cycling.
Practical operational advantages include:
- Reactive amber glaze adds visual character to plated dishes without added effort from the kitchen
- Compatible with both Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, allowing creative mix-and-match presentation
- Alumina vitrified ceramic construction handles daily commercial dishwasher use reliably
- Consistent 103mm sizing supports uniform portion presentation across all covers
- Supplied in packs of 12, practical for stocking to cover a full service without excessive outlay
There are no electrical or installation requirements for this product. Storage space for stacking should be considered when ordering multiple packs, particularly for larger operations. As with all reactive-glazed tableware, some natural variation in shade and pattern between pieces is expected and is not a defect.
These bowls are a practical choice for independent restaurants, bistros, and hotel dining rooms looking to add visual interest to table presentation without committing to a fully uniform tableware set. Operations that require a closer colour match across large cover numbers may wish to discuss ordering and batch considerations with us before placing a larger order, as reactive glazes can vary between production runs.
If you're building a tableware programme or matching these into an existing Steelite range, we're happy to talk through what works well together.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a robust material well suited to the demands of commercial dishwasher cycles. The glaze is designed to withstand regular high-temperature washing without significant loss of finish, though as with all glazed tableware, avoiding sharp impacts during loading will extend service life.
- Reactive glazes are applied in a way that produces natural variation in tone and pattern — this is intentional and part of the Aurora collection's character. You can expect a consistent amber palette across the pack, but some variation between individual pieces is normal and not considered a fault. For operations where very close colour matching is critical across large quantities, it's worth discussing batch consistency with us before ordering.
- Aurora is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, which gives operators flexibility to mix pieces across a service without the look becoming disjointed. This is useful for sites that want to introduce new pieces gradually or use different formats for different courses within the same cover.
