Product Description
The Steelite Bead Truffle mug is a well-proportioned, vitrified china mug from Steelite's established Bead range. The Truffle colourway — a warm, muted grey-brown — gives the piece a restrained, contemporary look that sits comfortably across a range of front-of-house styles, from informal café settings to more considered dining environments. Sold in packs of twelve, it is priced and packaged for commercial use from the outset.
Vitrified china is the standard for serious front-of-house crockery in commercial settings. The vitrification process produces a dense, low-porosity body that resists chipping and crazing under the thermal stress of continuous commercial dishwasher cycles. For operators running high beverage covers, that durability translates directly into a longer service life and lower replacement frequency compared with lighter earthenware alternatives.
The Bead range takes its name from the fine raised detailing that runs around the rim — a subtle design element that adds grip and a sense of quality without drawing attention away from the colourway. At 285ml, the mug is well suited to standard espresso-based drinks such as flat whites, cortados, and short lattes, as well as filter coffee and tea service where a smaller, neater presentation is preferred over a large handled mug.
- Vitrified china body for durability under commercial dishwasher use

- 285ml capacity suits espresso-based drinks and standard tea and coffee service

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes. Vitrified china is specifically suited to the thermal and mechanical demands of commercial dishwashers. The dense, low-porosity body resists crazing and surface degradation that can affect lower-quality earthenware over time, making it a practical choice for high-cover operations running multiple wash cycles per service.
- At 285ml, the Bead Truffle mug sits comfortably in the range used for flat whites, short lattes, and cortados, as well as standard tea and filter coffee service. If your menu leans towards larger latte or cappuccino formats, it is worth checking whether a larger capacity within the Bead range would better suit your drink specifications.
- The Bead range is designed with a consistent profile and detailing across the collection, so mixing mugs, cups, saucers, and plates within the range generally works well on the table. If you are building a matched set across multiple pieces or colourways, the team can help confirm compatibility and advise on quantities.
