A story of Australian Craft: Our Collaboration with Country Road.
Together with Country Road, we've created a limited-edition range that is proudly designed, sourced, and made in Victoria. From moulding to casting, firing and glazing, each piece passes through 12 pairs of hands at our Melbourne workshop. Brought together by a shared love of local design and manufacturing, our collaboration tells a story of Australian craft, honed over decades.

The shape of each piece pays homage to the many artisans that bring a Robert Gordon design to life.
"We were so inspired by the number of skilled hands that touched each product, and we really wanted to celebrate that. This is where the lovely pinch detail comes into play. Each piece feels so comfortable and organic in the hand - it's a perfect blend of form and function. "

One-of-a-kind designs
The range compromises six unique silhouettes, crafted using clay sourced from the Bendigo region in Victoria. The distinctive colour is achieved using reclaimed glaze, sourced from leftover samples and factory remnants. This makes each piece one-of-a-kind, embracing unique character variations and imperfections that can't be replicated. Robert Gordon's ceramic engineer, Melissa Farrell, perfected the reclaimed glaze over a period of three months - testing and trialling various methods to achieve the ideal shade of green.
"This was a unique opportunity to work on an innovative approach to glaze making, working with reclaimed materials. We never really knew where this approach would take us, but with time and refinement we've achieved an end result that we're really proud of."
