Product Description
The Steelite Craft White Bowl is a 280mm large bowl finished in a deliberately informal, slightly textured white glaze that gives each piece a handcrafted appearance. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, it is part of Steelite's Craft range — a collection designed to bring a relaxed, artisan aesthetic to table settings without compromising on the robustness expected in professional service environments.
In operational terms, alumina vitrified ceramic is a reliable choice for front-of-house use. It handles the thermal cycling of a busy pass well, and the material's density means it resists chipping better than standard vitreous china under the routine handling of a working kitchen. The 280mm diameter makes this a versatile bowl suited to generous pasta portions, sharing plates, salads, or deep-filled desserts, depending on the concept.
- Safe for oven, microwave, freezer, and dishwasher use
- Craft glaze gives an individual, rustic appearance suited to casual dining concepts
- Alumina vitrified ceramic offers good chip resistance for day-to-day service
- 280mm diameter supports a range of plating styles and portion sizes
- Supplied in a pack of 12, practical for building or topping up existing cover counts
There are no unusual handling requirements. The bowls are dishwasher safe, which keeps them practical in high-turnover environments. The Craft glaze is inherently variable in appearance, so some visual difference between individual pieces is normal and part of the range's character rather than a defect.
This bowl suits cafés, bistros, casual dining restaurants, and any operation looking to move away from plain white fine china towards a more textured, informal presentation. If your cover count requires a larger initial quantity or you are fitting out a new site, it is worth discussing volume requirements with us before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Alumina vitrified ceramic is one of the more durable ceramic compositions used in commercial tableware and generally performs well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. The Craft glaze is applied to a denser body than standard vitreous china, which helps resist crazing over time, though longevity will always depend on rack loading practices and the dishwasher chemicals in use.
- Yes. The Craft range is designed to have a handcrafted, rustic look, and some natural variation in glaze tone and texture between pieces is a deliberate characteristic of the range rather than a quality issue. This suits informal and casual dining concepts well, though operators seeking a perfectly uniform table presentation may prefer a more standardised white range.
- For a small café or a restaurant running modest cover counts, a pack or two may be sufficient as a starting point. For a new site opening with 40 or more covers, most operators find it practical to hold at least two to three bowls per cover to allow for breakages and dishwasher turnaround. If you are unsure what quantity makes sense for your operation, we are happy to talk it through before you order.
