Robert Gordon Ceramics FAQs
Is Robert Gordon an Australian company?
Yes. Robert Gordon is a family-owned Australian ceramics and homewares brand with a history spanning more than 70 years. The Gordon family has a long connection with pottery in Australia, and today Robert Gordon Australia is known for its distinctive ceramics, tableware and homewares.
Where are Robert Gordon ceramics made?
Robert Gordon is an Australian family-owned ceramics company, with its pottery heritage and headquarters in Victoria. Today, the brand produces different collections using a combination of Australian pottery production and carefully selected international manufacturing. If where a particular piece is made is important to you, check the individual product details before purchasing.
How are Robert Gordon ceramics made?
The process varies between collections, but ceramic production generally begins with clay being formed into shape before drying and firing. Glazes are then applied and the ceramics are fired again at high temperatures to create their finished colour, texture and surface. The interaction between clay, glaze and heat is also what can give individual pieces their subtle variations.
Why do Robert Gordon ceramics have variations in colour and glaze?
Variations in glaze, colour and texture are a natural part of ceramic production, particularly when reactive or layered glazes are used. Heat within the kiln can affect each piece slightly differently, meaning two pieces from the same Robert Gordon collection may not look completely identical. These differences are part of the character of ceramic tableware rather than something that needs to be hidden.
Are Robert Gordon ceramics handmade?
Robert Gordon uses a range of ceramic-making techniques across its collections, so the level of handwork can vary between products. Its long pottery heritage, however, continues to influence the shapes, glazes, textures and finishes the brand is known for.
Are Robert Gordon ceramics dishwasher safe?
Many Robert Gordon ceramics are designed for everyday use and are dishwasher safe, but care instructions can vary between collections and finishes. We recommend checking the care information on the individual product before placing it in the dishwasher, microwave or oven.
Is Robert Gordon pottery suitable for everyday use?
Yes. One of the things we like most about Robert Gordon pottery is that so many pieces are designed to be used rather than saved for special occasions. Mugs, bowls, plates, jugs and serving pieces can easily become part of the everyday kitchen and table.
Is Robert Gordon pottery a good Australian gift?
Robert Gordon ceramics make a lovely Australian gift, particularly for housewarmings, weddings, birthdays and people setting up a new home. Rather than being purely decorative, pieces such as mugs, bowls and serving platters are useful enough to become part of everyday life.
