The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Storm espresso cups are vitrified china cups produced in collaboration with Robert Gordon Australia, a studio pottery brand with a long background in functional ceramic design. The Storm glaze is one of two colourways in the collection and gives each cup a distinctive, handcrafted character that holds up well in a professional service environment.
Vitrified china is a practical choice for café and restaurant use. It fires at higher temperatures than standard ceramic, which produces a denser, less porous body that resists chipping, staining, and moisture absorption over time. These cups are designed to withstand the routine demands of a busy coffee counter — repeated handling, commercial dishwasher cycles, and the thermal shock of hot espresso.
The cup shape draws on traditional espresso proportions, which supports a clean pour and helps retain crema presentation. For operators who take coffee quality seriously, the geometry of the cup does matter, and this range has been developed with that in mind rather than being purely decorative.
- Vitrified china construction suitable for commercial dishwasher use
- Distinctive Storm glaze adds considered presentation to coffee service
- Traditional espresso cup shape supports crema retention
- Sold in packs of 12, practical for stocking a working counter
- Pairs with matching saucers and other pieces in the Potters Collection
These cups are most appropriate for independent cafés, hotel breakfast operations, and restaurant coffee stations where presentation alongside durability is a priority. They are not intended for very high-volume fast-service environments where a plainer, lower-cost cup may be more practical from a breakage-cost perspective.
If you are building out a coffee offering and want to discuss cup selection alongside other front-of-house considerations, the team is happy to help you think it through.
£103.00(£123.60 inc VAT)
These straight-sided stack bowls from Robert Gordon's Potters Collection are made from vitrified china in the Storm colourway. The wide, flat profile and straight walls maximise the usable surface area, making them practical for sharing portions, small sides, and composed plating where a defined boundary helps the presentation rather than fighting it.
In a busy service environment, vitrified china holds up well under the daily demands of commercial kitchen use — it resists chipping better than standard earthenware and handles the repeated temperature changes that come with any working pass. The straight-sided form stacks cleanly back of house, keeping storage compact and reducing the risk of breakage from unstable piles.
Key practical points for front-of-house teams and kitchen operators:
- Straight walls allow stable, space-efficient stacking
- Wide surface suits sharing dishes, small plates, and sides
- Vitrified china construction handles regular commercial use
- Storm finish gives a consistent, contemporary look across a table setting
- Supplied in a pack of 12, practical for batch ordering
These bowls are well suited to casual dining, sharing-plate concepts, and any operation looking for a robust, presentable piece that works as hard front of house as it does back of house. If your volume or service style calls for a different size or format within the Potters Collection, it's worth looking at the broader range before committing to a single piece.
If you're building a table setting across multiple pieces or want guidance on which formats suit your menu style, the team is happy to talk it through.
£145.00(£174.00 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection stack plates are straight-sided round plates made from vitrified china, finished in the Pier colourway. The straight sides maximise the usable plating surface and give a clean, consistent look across the table, making them a practical choice for kitchens where presentation matters as much as throughput.
In service, vitrified china holds up well under the demands of a busy kitchen pass — resistant to chipping and crazing with normal commercial use, and suitable for repeated dishwasher cycles without significant colour loss. The straight-sided profile also makes stacking straightforward, whether that is back-of-house storage between services or tableside sharing plates presented stacked to the guest.
- Consistent plate profile supports neat, efficient stacking during service
- Straight sides provide a clean plating canvas for a range of presentation styles
- Vitrified china construction withstands repeated commercial dishwasher cycles
- Pier colourway suits rustic, natural, and contemporary table settings
- Sold in packs of 12, practical for building or supplementing existing covers
These plates are well suited to cafés, bistros, and casual dining restaurants looking for a durable everyday plate with some character. They work particularly well for sharing-style menus where the straight-sided profile and stacked presentation add to the experience. For operations needing larger covers at once, the pack size is worth factoring into your order quantities.
If you are putting together a new table setting or matching these into an existing collection, we are happy to talk through what works well together — feel free to get in touch.
£89.39(£107.27 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Storm saucers are part of a dedicated coffee range designed around the practical demands of café and restaurant service. Made from vitrified china, these 127mm saucers are paired with the Potters Collection cup shapes, which were developed with traditional coffee presentation in mind — proportioned to complement a well-pulled espresso or a carefully poured flat white.
The Storm glaze gives the range a consistent, considered aesthetic that works well in contemporary café settings and hospitality venues where tableware appearance matters as much as durability. Vitrified china is a sensible material choice for front-of-house coffee service: it handles the daily demands of commercial dishwashing reliably and resists chipping better than standard earthenware.
Sold in packs of 12, these saucers are suited to operations that need to maintain adequate cover counts through busy service periods without running short. For higher-volume sites or venues with larger seating capacities, it is worth considering whether a larger pack quantity or additional stock would better support service flow.
If you are building out a coffee service range or matching saucers to existing Potters Collection cups, we are happy to help confirm compatibility and quantities before you order.
£76.98(£92.38 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Pier espresso cups are hand-finished vitrified china cups with a deliberately organic, earthy aesthetic. The Pier colourway sits in warm, muted tones that complement natural timber, slate, and stone surfaces, making them a considered choice for venues where the tableware is expected to reinforce the room's character rather than simply hold a drink.
Vitrified china is a practical material choice for a working café or restaurant. It is denser and more resistant to chipping and crazing than standard earthenware, which matters when cups are moving through a commercial glasswasher multiple times a day. The finish holds up well to regular commercial washing cycles without the glaze breaking down prematurely.
From a service perspective, the cups suit specialty coffee operations — independent cafés, brunch venues, wine bars offering espresso service, and hotel dining rooms where presentation is a priority. The rustic aesthetic does not suit every brand identity, so it is worth considering how the cup will sit alongside your existing tableware before committing.
- Vitrified china construction for durability under daily commercial use
- Organic, hand-finished appearance well suited to casual and artisan dining concepts
- Supplied in packs of 12, practical for managing attrition in busy service
- Dishwasher safe for high-frequency commercial glasswasher use
- Pier colourway works well alongside natural material table settings
If you are outfitting a larger site or building a complete table setting around this range, it is worth having a conversation with us about pack quantities and whether companion pieces are available — we are happy to help you plan a cohesive covers package.
£392.00(£470.40 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Storm plate is a 235mm vitrified china side or starter plate designed for operators who want to bring a handcrafted, organic aesthetic to their table setting. The Storm colourway sits in a muted, earthy palette that reads well against both rustic and contemporary interior schemes. The slightly irregular, organic form is intentional — it reflects the character of the Potters Collection range rather than the uniformity of standard catering chinaware.
Vitrified china is a practical choice for commercial service. It handles the daily demands of a busy restaurant or café — repeated dishwasher cycles, stacking, and the general wear of front-of-house use — better than earthenware or standard porcelain alternatives. Plates in this range are well suited to venues where durability and presentation both matter.
Practically speaking, this format works well as a side plate, bread plate, or starter plate depending on how you dress it. The 235mm diameter keeps it versatile without taking up excessive table space. Key operational points worth considering:
- Vitrified china construction for commercial dishwasher durability
- Organic, slightly irregular form adds visual character to table covers
- Storm colourway suits neutral, earthy, and natural interior palettes
- Pack of 24 sized for smaller operations or as a top-up quantity
- Stackable profile supports practical back-of-house storage
This plate is best suited to independent restaurants, cafés, bistros, and boutique hotel dining rooms where the aesthetic of the tableware is part of the overall guest experience. For larger operations requiring higher pack quantities or a different colourway — the same range is available in the Pier colourway — it is worth discussing your full cover count and service style before ordering.
If you'd like to talk through how this range fits your existing table setting or to discuss pack quantities, we're happy to help before you place an order.
£279.00(£334.80 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Storm plate is a 280mm vitrified china plate designed with a deliberately organic, hand-crafted aesthetic. The Storm colourway — a muted, earthy tone — gives these plates a character that suits informal and rustic table settings without looking out of place in more considered dining environments. Plates are sold in packs of twelve, which is a practical quantity for building or restocking a matching set.
Vitrified china is a sensible choice for commercial foodservice. The vitrification process produces a dense, non-porous body that resists chipping better than standard earthenware and holds up well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. The organic shaping means each piece has subtle variation — that irregularity is part of the design intent, so operators should expect and embrace it rather than treat it as inconsistency.
These plates work well in settings where the tableware is expected to contribute to the overall feel of the dining experience — casual bistros, farm-to-table concepts, independent restaurants, gastropubs, and café dining rooms. At 280mm, the plate is a practical main-course size with enough surface area for composed dishes without being unwieldy for front-of-house staff to carry and stack.
- Organic aesthetic adds character to relaxed, informal table settings
- Vitrified china body suitable for commercial dishwasher use
- 280mm diameter practical for main-course plating
- Storm colourway pairs well with natural and neutral table linen
- Twelve-piece pack quantity works for stocking or supplementing existing sets
If you are specifying tableware across a new opening or want guidance on mixing pieces within the Potters Collection range, our team is happy to talk through what works together before you commit to quantities.
£261.00(£313.20 inc VAT)
The Pier Organic plate is part of Robert Gordon's Potters Collection, a range of vitrified china tableware designed for use in commercial dining environments. The 280mm size makes it a practical main-course plate suitable for plated table service, and the organic form — characteristic of the Potters Collection — gives each piece a handcrafted, artisan quality while retaining the durability expected of professional tableware.
Vitrified china is a well-established material choice in commercial hospitality settings. It fires at high temperatures to produce a dense, low-porosity body that resists chipping and crazing better than standard earthenware, and it holds up well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. The Pier profile, with its natural, slightly irregular rim, suits contemporary plating styles where the plate itself contributes to the overall presentation rather than serving purely as a neutral canvas.
From an operational standpoint, the Potters Collection appeals to operators who want to add character to their table presentation without moving to bespoke or fragile ceramics. The vitrified china construction means the plates stack reliably, stack safely, and maintain their appearance under sustained service conditions. Supplied in packs of 12, the quantity is practical for building initial cover counts or topping up an existing set.
These plates are best suited to restaurant dining, boutique hotel food and beverage operations, and similar table-service environments where presentation quality matters. They are not intended for high-volume canteen or quick-service use where heavier-duty stoneware or melamine alternatives would be more appropriate.
If you are building a full table setting around the Potters Collection or want to discuss cover quantities and complementary pieces, the team is happy to help you plan the right specification.
£122.00(£146.40 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection milk jugs are vitrified china pouring jugs for table and counter coffee service, 170ml, sold in packs of 12. They come in two glazes: Pier (brown) and Storm (blue). Choose the colour above. Vitrified china is durable and suited to commercial dishwashing.
Colours and SKUs:
- Pier, Brown (VV2757)
- Storm, Blue (VV2763)
If you are building a table setting from the Potters Collection, the team is happy to help with quantities and matching pieces.
£98.33(£118.00 inc VAT)
The Pier saucer is part of Robert Gordon's Potters Collection, a range developed with specialty coffee service in mind. Finished in a distinctive Pier glaze, the design takes its cues from traditional coffee-house aesthetics while being made to a commercial standard in vitrified china — the material of choice for professional front-of-house tableware.
Vitrified china is well suited to the demands of a busy café or restaurant environment. It handles repeated dishwasher cycles reliably, resists chipping better than standard earthenware, and holds its glaze colour and finish over time. The saucer pairs with the corresponding Pier cup from the same collection, giving a consistent look across the table that works well in both seated café settings and counter service.
- Vitrified china construction — durable and dishwasher safe for daily commercial use
- Pier glaze — a considered finish that holds its appearance through heavy rotation
- Traditional profile — well proportioned for espresso, flat white, and filter coffee service
- Supplied in packs of 12 — practical quantity for stocking a working section
- Part of a coordinated collection — cups and saucers available together for a unified look
These saucers are best suited to cafés, hotel breakfast operations, restaurants with a coffee programme, and any venue where tableware presentation matters alongside durability. For higher-volume sites running multiple sittings, it is worth considering stock depth carefully — having sufficient cover to rotate through dishwasher cycles without running short during service.
If you are building out a full table setting or matching to existing Potters Collection pieces, the team is happy to talk through what quantities and combinations make sense for your operation.
£145.00(£174.00 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Storm stack plates are 230mm vitrified china plates with a straight-sided profile, supplied in packs of twelve. The Storm colourway gives a moody, dark-toned finish that works well against a range of food styles and presentation approaches commonly seen in contemporary casual dining and sharing-format service.
The straight-sided design is a practical choice for kitchens looking to maximise usable plating surface. Rather than a conventional rolled rim eating into the centre, the flat, upright edge keeps the full diameter available for the chef, which is particularly useful for composed sharing dishes or tapas-style portions where space on the plate matters.
Vitrified china construction means these plates are built for repetitive commercial use — resistant to chipping at the rim under normal service handling, and suitable for commercial dishwasher cycles. The stackable format also makes back-of-house storage straightforward, reducing the footprint needed on shelving or in the pass.
- Straight-sided profile maximises usable plating surface
- Storm finish suits modern, earthy, and sharing-concept menus
- Vitrified china suitable for commercial dishwasher use
- Stackable design aids compact back-of-house storage
- Supplied in a practical pack of twelve for service quantity buying
These plates are well suited to casual dining venues, sharing-concept restaurants, and operators running tapas or small-plates menus. For kitchens needing a lighter or more neutral-toned option, the Pier colourway in the same range offers an alternative aesthetic within the same form factor.
If you're unsure whether the 230mm size suits your portion sizes and table covers, or you'd like to see how Storm sits alongside your existing tableware, we're happy to talk it through.
£103.00(£123.60 inc VAT)
These bowls are part of Robert Gordon's Potters Collection, made from vitrified china in the Pier colourway. The straight-sided, shallow profile is designed with plating in mind — the wide, flat base gives chefs a generous surface area to work with, and the consistent shape stacks neatly whether stored back of house or presented as a stacked share to the table.
In a busy service environment, uniformity matters. These bowls are well suited to operations where front-of-house presentation is a considered part of the dining experience — casual dining, share-plate concepts, small plates menus, and café settings where the tableware is expected to carry some aesthetic weight without being overly formal. The vitrified china construction handles the rigours of a commercial dishwasher cycle reliably and resists chipping better than standard earthenware.
Practical advantages for service and operations include:
- Straight sides maximise usable surface area for plating and garnishing
- Consistent form allows stable back-of-house stacking to save shelf space
- Vitrified china withstands commercial dishwasher temperatures and daily heavy use
- Supplied in a pack of 12, practical for cover counts and replacements
- The Pier colourway complements both neutral and earthy table settings
The shallow 45mm depth means these are better suited to sharing plates, snacks, sides, and small courses than to deeper dishes or liquid-heavy preparations — worth considering when matching them to your menu format.
If you're building out a tableware range or want to confirm the Pier colourway works alongside other pieces in the Potters Collection, the team are happy to help you make the right call before you order.
£392.00(£470.40 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Pier plate is a hand-finished vitrified china plate finished in a muted, earthy Pier colourway. The organic shaping and surface texture give it a distinctly artisan character that sits well alongside rustic, natural, and casual dining concepts. At 235mm, it sits in a practical mid-size range that works across a broad range of plated dishes — from starters and sharing plates through to smaller mains.
Vitrified china construction means the plates are considerably more durable than standard ceramic alternatives, resisting chipping and crazing under the repeated thermal cycling that comes with commercial dishwashing. The Pier colourway — a warm, earthy tone — holds its character well through regular service use and tends to complement natural wood, slate, and linen table settings.
Practically speaking, the Potters Collection suits operators who want tableware that reinforces a hand-crafted or independent identity without moving into bespoke pottery that is difficult to replace or keep consistent. Key operational considerations include:
- Vitrified china construction suited to commercial dishwasher use
- Organic form and Pier colourway suited to casual and artisan dining concepts
- Pack of 24 provides a practical opening quantity for smaller operations
- Mid-size format versatile across starters, sharing plates, and lighter mains
- Consistent colourway allows stock to be replenished without noticeable variation
This plate is best suited to independent restaurants, gastropubs, café-restaurants, and boutique hotel dining rooms where the tableware is expected to carry some of the brand's aesthetic weight. For higher-volume sites or those with more demanding dishwashing cycles, it is worth discussing whether a heavier gauge or more utilitarian profile would serve better in the long run.
If you are building a full table setting around the Potters Collection or want to confirm the Pier colourway works with your existing pieces, our team is happy to help you work through the options before you commit.
£97.34(£116.81 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Storm stack plates are straight-sided, 270mm round plates made from vitrified china and finished in the Storm colourway. The flat, even plating surface and consistent straight sides make them well suited to share plates, composed starters, and modern plating styles where presentation space matters.
Vitrified china is a practical choice for busy food service environments. It resists chipping better than standard earthenware, holds up to commercial dishwasher cycles, and maintains its finish under regular heavy use. The Storm glaze gives a distinctive, natural tone that works well against a range of food styles and table settings.
For front-of-house teams, the straight-sided profile stacks cleanly and stably, both on pass shelving and when delivered to the table as a deliberate share format. The consistent dimensions make mise en place and plating more predictable across a section.
- Vitrified china construction suited to daily commercial dishwasher use
- Straight sides maximise usable plating surface
- Stable stacking profile for back-of-house storage and plated shares
- Storm finish suits contemporary and rustic food presentation styles
- Pack of six supports consistent table cover matching
These plates are best suited to restaurants, bistros, and hospitality venues looking for a consistent artisan aesthetic across their tableware. They work equally well as individual covers or as share plates for two to three guests. For operators needing larger format serving pieces or a full matching range, the broader Potters Collection includes complementary sizes and forms.
If you are building a tableware range and want to talk through quantities, colour pairings, or suitability for your service format, the team are happy to help.
£98.33(£118.00 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Pier cappuccino cups are vitrified china cups designed with traditional coffee service in mind. The Pier glaze gives each piece a distinctive, earthy finish that sits comfortably alongside both contemporary and more classic front-of-house aesthetics. Sold in a pack of twelve, they are intended for professional café, restaurant, and hospitality use.
Vitrified china is a well-established choice for commercial coffee service. It is denser and more chip-resistant than standard earthenware, which matters in environments where cups cycle through service, washing, and stacking repeatedly throughout the day. The Pier glaze is applied to a shape developed with crema presentation and pour balance in mind, making these cups a considered choice for operators who take their coffee programme seriously.
- Vitrified china construction for durability in daily commercial use
- Pier glaze finish suited to both traditional and modern table settings
- Cup shape developed with crema and pour presentation in mind
- Sold in a pack of twelve, practical for café and restaurant cover counts
- Consistent glaze finish supports a uniform appearance across the table
These cups are well suited to independent cafés, hotel breakfast and lounge service, and restaurants offering a considered coffee menu. A pack of twelve will suit lower-cover or secondary service points; operators running high-volume espresso bars may want to consider a larger pack quantity to maintain a working stock through peak service.
If you are building out a coffee or tableware specification and want to talk through quantities or how these sit alongside other pieces in the Potters Collection, the team is happy to help.
£91.38(£109.66 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Pier coffee cups are vitrified china cups finished in a distinctive Pier glaze, designed with traditional coffee drinking in mind. The range was developed with the pour and presentation of espresso-based drinks as a priority, and the cup shape is intended to complement crema and showcase the drink rather than simply contain it.
Vitrified china is a practical choice for busy café and hospitality environments. It handles the thermal demands of continuous service well, resists chipping better than standard earthenware, and holds its glaze appearance through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. The Pier glaze has a warm, earthy tone that sits well on a café counter or table setting without looking clinical.
These cups are well suited to independent cafés, hotel breakfast and lounge service, and restaurant front-of-house where a considered, consistent tableware aesthetic matters. They work equally well for filter coffee service as for espresso-based drinks. Selling in packs of 12 makes them practical for opening orders or topping up existing stock without over-committing.
It is worth noting that the Potters Collection is a design-led range, so replacement stock availability and glaze consistency over time are worth discussing if you are building a large matched service. If you are fitting out a high-volume operation or need guidance on quantities, it is worth speaking with the team before placing an order.
£90.38(£108.46 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Storm coffee cups are vitrified china cups finished in a distinctive Storm glaze. The shape draws on traditional coffee cup proportions, making them a natural fit for espresso-based drinks where presentation matters — the form is designed with crema retention and a clean pour in mind. They are sold in packs of twelve, which suits initial purchases or topping up existing covers.
Vitrified china is a practical choice for front-of-house use. It withstands the temperature cycling of a busy café or restaurant service and holds up well to repeated commercial dishwasher use. The glaze is consistent across the range, which helps maintain a uniform table presentation throughout the day.
- Vitrified china construction — durable and dishwasher safe for commercial use
- Storm glaze finish suits contemporary café and restaurant aesthetics
- Traditional cup shape designed to complement espresso-based drinks
- Sold in packs of twelve — practical for cover matching or stock replenishment
- Part of a wider Potters Collection range, supporting consistent table presentation
These cups are well suited to cafés, hotel breakfast operations, and restaurant dessert or coffee services where a handcrafted aesthetic is preferred over a purely utilitarian finish. For higher-volume operations needing larger batch quantities or a more neutral commercial finish, there are alternative options worth considering.
If you are building a full table setting or matching to existing Potters Collection pieces, it is worth speaking with the team to confirm availability across the range before placing an order.
£279.00(£334.80 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Organic plate in Storm is a vitrified china side plate designed for casual and informal dining environments. The Storm colourway delivers a muted, earthy palette with an intentionally uneven glaze finish, giving each piece a handcrafted quality that suits relaxed table settings. At 190mm across, these sit comfortably as side plates, bread plates, or small sharing plates depending on the cover style.
Vitrified china is a practical choice for commercial use. It fires at a higher temperature than standard earthenware, producing a denser, less porous body that resists chipping better under the thermal and mechanical stresses of a working kitchen. That said, the organic, rustic aesthetic of this range comes with a slightly more textured surface profile, so it is worth considering how that fits with your existing crockery and dishwashing setup before committing.
These plates work particularly well in settings where the tableware is part of the dining experience — independent restaurants, farm-to-table concepts, boutique hotels, and café-style operations where the organic look reinforces the overall offer. The pack of 24 suits a modest cover count; operations running higher volumes or with faster table turns may want to consider a larger pack quantity to reduce mid-service shortfalls.
If you are building a full tabletop scheme around this colourway or need guidance on pack sizing for your cover count, the team is happy to help you work through what makes sense for your operation.
£97.34(£116.81 inc VAT)
The Storm saucer is part of Robert Gordon's Potters Collection, a range of vitrified china coffee ware developed with a traditional coffee service aesthetic in mind. The Storm glaze offers a distinctive, considered finish that suits contemporary café and restaurant environments where presentation is part of the experience. Saucers are sold in packs of 12, making them practical to introduce into an existing service setup or to replenish stock.
Vitrified china is a well-established choice for commercial front-of-house ware. It handles repeated machine washing reliably, resists chipping better than standard earthenware, and holds its glaze through sustained daily use — all of which matters when a saucer is turning over dozens of times during a busy service.
- Vitrified china construction suited to commercial dishwasher cycles
- Storm glaze finish designed to complement specialty coffee presentation
- Part of a coordinated Potters Collection range for consistent table settings
- Sold in packs of 12 to simplify stock management
- Traditional coffee ware proportions that work with a broad range of cup styles
These saucers are well suited to independent cafés, hotel breakfast and lounge service, and restaurants where coffee presentation is taken seriously. The Potters Collection is available in more than one glaze colourway, so if Storm isn't quite the right tone for your setting, there are alternatives worth considering within the range.
If you're building out a full coffee service or matching to existing tableware, it's worth having a conversation with us before ordering — we can help ensure the pieces work together as a cohesive set.
£97.34(£116.81 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Storm cappuccino cups are vitrified china cups finished in a deep, textured Storm glaze. The Potters Collection is designed with coffee service in mind — the cup shapes draw on traditional coffee styles, with proportions developed to complement a well-poured espresso-based drink and support a consistent crema presentation. Storm is one of two glaze options in the range, alongside Pier, giving operators a degree of choice when building a coherent table or counter aesthetic.
Vitrified china is a practical choice for busy café and hospitality environments. It withstands the thermal stress of regular commercial dishwasher cycles and handles the knocks of high-turnover service better than standard earthenware. The glaze is designed to hold its character over time, which matters when you are running a consistent front-of-house look across a full set.
These cups are well suited to café operators, hotel breakfast service, and restaurant coffee programmes where presentation matters but everyday durability cannot be compromised. The pack quantity of 12 supports initial setup or topping up an existing set. For sites running very high covers, it is worth considering how many sets you will need to maintain flow through a dishwasher cycle during peak service.
If you are building out a full coffee setup — cups, saucers, and ancillaries — or want to confirm the Storm glaze works with your existing serviceware, our team is happy to help you think it through before you commit.
£279.00(£334.80 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Pier plate is a 190mm vitrified china side or starter plate finished in an earthy, organic colourway. The Pier colourway draws on natural coastal tones, giving each piece a hand-crafted aesthetic that works particularly well in relaxed, casual dining settings. Sold in packs of 24, the range is aimed squarely at operators who want consistent tableware with genuine character rather than standard white china.
Vitrified china is a well-proven material for commercial tableware — denser and more durable than standard earthenware, it handles the daily rigours of a busy dining room, commercial dishwasher cycles, and stacking in service without the chipping or crazing that can affect lesser materials. The organic glaze and form of these plates mean that minor variation between pieces is characteristic of the style rather than a quality concern, which is worth bearing in mind when ordering replacement stock across different batches.
These plates suit operators looking to create a distinct, informal table setting — wine bars, farm-to-table restaurants, café dining rooms, and boutique hospitality venues are typical environments where this kind of tableware is used. The 190mm diameter positions them comfortably as a side plate, bread plate, or a starter plate for lighter dishes. For operations needing a full dinnerware suite, the Potters Collection includes a broader range of pieces in the same colourway.
If you are building a full table setting around this range or need to assess quantities for a new opening, our team is happy to talk through what works in practice.
£90.38(£108.46 inc VAT)
These 160mm stack plates are part of Robert Gordon's Potters Collection, finished in the Pier colourway. Made from vitrified china, they have straight sides and a flat, open plating surface that works well for sharing portions, small plates, and informal dining presentations. The straight-sided profile also makes them practical for back-of-house storage, stacking cleanly without the instability that can come from more tapered profiles.
Vitrified china is a practical choice for commercial tableware — it handles the repeated thermal cycling of a busy dishwasher reliably and resists chipping better than standard earthenware under day-to-day service conditions. The Pier colourway sits within a broader collection, so there is scope to coordinate with other pieces across the range if you are building a consistent table setting.
These plates suit operations running a casual or contemporary dining concept — small plates menus, sharing starters, or light mains. The 160mm diameter is well matched to snack and side portions rather than full main course plating, which is worth bearing in mind when assessing quantities per cover.
If you are unsure whether this size and colourway fits your concept, or if you need guidance on quantities for your cover count, we are happy to help you work through it before you order.
£89.39(£107.27 inc VAT)
The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Storm stack plates are 160mm vitrified china plates with straight sides and a flat, open plating surface. The Storm colourway gives them a cool, muted tone that sits well against a range of food styles. They are sold in packs of twelve, which suits both initial purchases and top-up orders as part of an existing set.
The straight-sided profile makes these plates genuinely practical for sharing and small-plate menus. The flat surface gives the kitchen a clean canvas for plating, while the shape allows plates to stack neatly both on the pass and in storage back of house, reducing the footprint they occupy during service.
- Vitrified china construction — durable under regular commercial use and repeated washing
- Straight sides maximise usable plating surface for the plate diameter
- Stackable profile keeps storage tidy and minimises handling time
- Storm colourway works well with rustic, natural, and contemporary plating styles
- 160mm diameter suits individual starters, sharing portions, and small-plate courses
As vitrified china, these plates are suited to commercial dishwasher use and hold up well against the thermal stresses of a busy kitchen environment. The 160mm size is a practical choice for starter-sized portions or as part of a shared table spread, though for larger mains or where a bigger plating canvas is needed, the same collection is available in larger sizes.
These plates are well suited to casual dining restaurants, small-plate and tapas concepts, café bistros, and any operation looking to add some considered detail to the table without moving away from a practical, robust everyday plate. They work particularly well where the front-of-house aesthetic leans towards earthy or artisan styling.
If you are building out a full table setting or matching these to other pieces in the Potters Collection, we are happy to talk through what works together — get in touch with the team before you order.

The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Pier stack plates are 270mm vitrified china plates finished in the Pier glaze, one of two distinctive colourways in this range. The Potters Collection is produced by Robert Gordon Australia and draws on a craft-influenced aesthetic, with earthy tones and a tactile surface quality that sits comfortably alongside both contemporary and more traditional tableware settings.
Vitrified china is the standard material choice for commercial tableware, offering good resistance to chipping and a surface that holds up through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. The Pier glaze gives these plates a warm, natural character that works particularly well in café, brunch, and casual dining environments where considered tabletop presentation is part of the overall guest experience.
At 270mm these are a practical size for mains, sharing plates, or composed starters, and the stack-friendly profile helps with storage and service flow in tighter back-of-house spaces. Sold in packs of six, they suit operators who want to introduce the range or supplement an existing set.
A few practical points worth considering: the Pier colourway has a distinctive character that pairs well within the Robert Gordon range but may not suit every existing tableware scheme. As with all craft-influenced glazes, there will be natural variation between pieces — this is characteristic of the style rather than a defect, but it is worth being aware of if a highly uniform presentation is required.
This range is best suited to independent cafés, restaurants, and hospitality venues looking to add a point of difference to their tabletop without moving away from commercially durable materials. If you are outfitting a larger site or need to match across a broader tableware programme, our team is happy to discuss quantities and complementary pieces.

The Pier saucer is part of Robert Gordon's Potters Collection, a range developed with coffee service specifically in mind. The collection draws on traditional coffee-house shapes and is finished in a distinctive Pier glaze, giving it a considered, artisan aesthetic that sits well in café, restaurant, and hospitality settings where the presentation of espresso and filter coffee matters.
Made from vitrified china, these saucers are built to withstand the demands of daily commercial use. Vitrified china is a practical choice for busy service environments — it resists chipping better than standard earthenware and holds up well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles without significant glaze degradation over time.
Supplied in packs of 12, the Pier saucer is well suited to operators building or replenishing a cohesive coffee service. The format makes it straightforward to stock in sufficient quantity for front-of-house use while keeping spares in reserve.
- Pairs with the broader Potters Collection for a consistent table presentation
- Vitrified china construction handles frequent dishwasher use reliably
- Pier glaze offers a distinctive finish suited to specialty coffee settings
- Traditional coffee-oriented proportions complement standard espresso cups
If you're building out a full coffee service or matching to existing Potters Collection pieces, it's worth speaking to the team to confirm compatibility across the range before ordering in volume.
