Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Burnt Emerald Tulip Bowls 140mm (Pack of 12)

The Steelite Aurora Vesuvius Burnt Emerald Tulip Bowl is a 140mm serving bowl finished in a reactive glaze that produces natural variation in colour and tone across each piece. The burnt emerald colourway sits within the wider Aurora range, which pairs reactive glazes to create depth and contrast effects that are difficult to achieve with standard solid-colour tableware. No two pieces are identical, which gives the range a handcrafted quality suited to contemporary plating styles.

Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, these bowls are built to withstand the demands of regular commercial use. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a denser, harder-wearing body than standard porcelain, offering good resistance to chipping and thermal shock — both of which matter in a busy pass or dishwash environment. The tulip profile makes them practical for a range of dishes, from small starters and sides through to desserts and sharing portions.

A few practical points worth noting before ordering:

• Reactive glazes produce natural colour variation — uniformity across a full table setting should not be expected, and is generally considered part of the aesthetic
• Aurora is designed to be backwards compatible with both the Revolution and Vesuvius ranges, which gives operators flexibility when mixing pieces across a table
• Supplied in packs of 12, making quantity planning straightforward for most cover counts
• Alumina vitrified ceramic performs well in commercial dishwashers when standard operating temperatures and detergents are used

These bowls are well suited to restaurants, bistros, and hotel dining operations looking to add considered colour to their table presentation without committing to a fully custom range. They work particularly well where a naturalistic, artisan aesthetic is part of the overall dining concept. For operations needing a more neutral or formal presentation, other colourways within the Aurora and Vesuvius ranges may be a better fit.
