Steelite Brown Dapple Essence Bowl 140mm (Pack of 24)

The Steelite Brown Dapple Essence Bowl is a straight-sided ceramic bowl finished with a distinctive brown-rimmed dapple glaze. It sits within Steelite's broader Brown Dapple range, which means it coordinates cleanly with other pieces from the same collection — useful where operators want a consistent table setting across courses without resorting to a formal all-white cover.

Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, the bowl is built to cope with the demands of regular commercial service. The vitrified construction gives it good resistance to chipping and crazing under repeated thermal cycling, which matters when bowls are moving from dishwasher to service and back several times a day. The glossy glaze wipes down easily and holds its appearance well with routine machine washing.

In practical terms, this bowl works well across a range of service styles:

• Suited to casual dining, bistro, and café environments where a relaxed aesthetic is intentional
• Dishwasher safe for high-turnover covers without special handling requirements
• Microwave safe, allowing re-heating without transferring to separate serviceware
• Coordinates with other Brown Dapple pieces for a cohesive table presentation
• Sold in packs of 24, making it practical to stock an opening set or top up breakages

The 140mm diameter positions this as a starter, dessert, or side bowl rather than a main course piece. For operations needing larger serving capacity across the same aesthetic, other sizes are available within the Steelite Brown Dapple range. It is worth considering whether the brown-rimmed finish suits your existing table linen and furniture tones before committing to a full cover quantity.
