Enamelware - Slate Gray
Barebones Slate Gray Enamelware uses a steel core, hardened speckled enamel, and hand-finished stainless trim to create camp-ready tableware with a distinctive bronze-like patina.
Vitreous enamel is powdered glass fused to the steel surface at high temperature, producing a smooth, non-porous finish. The blue-gray slate color and hand-finished rim give each piece a slightly different appearance; minor color variation along the rim is expected, not a defect.
Choose deep plates, deep bowls, coffee cups, or tumblers in sets of two, or select the complete eight-piece dining set with two of each. The steel core makes the pieces useful for cabins, camps, patios, and everyday tables, but it also means they must never be placed in a microwave.

- Building a durable two-person camp or cabin table setting
- Replacing individual plates, bowls, cups, or tumblers in pairs
- Using distinctive steel-core dinnerware indoors or outdoors
