Steelite Nyx City Mug 285ml – Black Ceramic (Box of 12)

The Steelite Nyx City Mug is a 285ml ceramic mug finished in a deep, high-contrast black glaze. It is made from alumina vitrified ceramic, a durable, chip-resistant material widely used in professional front-of-house tableware where appearance and longevity both matter. The mug is sold in boxes of twelve, making it a practical quantity for initial stock or top-up ordering in café and restaurant environments.

In a service setting, the black glaze works particularly well with espresso-based drinks and specialty coffee, where the contrast between the dark body and the pale crema or latte art draws the eye and adds a degree of visual definition to the drink. Operators running a considered drinks programme often find that the vessel contributes meaningfully to how the finished product is perceived by the customer.

Alumina vitrified ceramic is a sensible choice for busy operations — it holds up well through repeated dishwasher cycles, resists staining better than lower-fired alternatives, and maintains its gloss over time with normal commercial use. The Nyx range is designed to stack and store efficiently, which helps in environments where back-of-house storage is at a premium.

This mug is well suited to independent cafés, hotel breakfast and lounge services, and restaurant operations where drinks presentation is given the same attention as the food offering. It is a straightforward, reliable choice for operators who want consistency of appearance across a full section without spending on bespoke or fine-bone options.
