Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Copper Kettle, a bustling tea room in Bath, wanted to refresh its traditional tableware to attract a younger, more style-conscious clientele. They replaced their plain white teapots with the Olympia Fondant mint green collection.
"The moment we put these on the tables, they made an impact. They're incredibly sturdy, pour without a single drip, and the colour is just beautiful. Our afternoon tea posts on social media get so much more engagement now."
Robert Finch – Proprietor
The tea room reported a notable increase in afternoon tea sales, attributing it to the enhanced visual appeal of their new service.

Explore more from OlympiaWhat 'Vitrified' Really Means for Your Busy Cafe
You'll see the term 'vitrified' on lots of professional tableware, but what does it actually mean for you? In simple terms, it's a process that makes the porcelain incredibly strong and non-porous. During manufacturing, the teapot is fired at an extremely high temperature, causing the clay particles to fuse together into a glass-like, or 'vitreous', state. Think of it like upgrading a standard sponge to a solid glass marble. The sponge absorbs everything, but the marble is impenetrable. This process means the teapot won't absorb water, old tea flavours, or odours, and it's far more resistant to the chips and cracks that come from daily knocks in a commercial kitchen. The BS4034 standard is your guarantee that it's been tested and approved for exactly this kind of tough environment.
