The Robert Gordon Potters Collection Storm Coupe Dishes are handcrafted porcelain side dishes designed to bring an artisan aesthetic to commercial tableware. Produced by leading Australian ceramics designer Robert Gordon, each piece is finished individually, meaning subtle variations in tone and surface texture are inherent to the collection rather than a defect. The result is a cohesive set that reads as considered and distinctive on the table rather than mass-produced.

In a busy service environment, tableware needs to hold its own against the demands of a professional kitchen — repeated commercial dishwashing cycles, stacking, and the general rigour of high-cover service. Porcelain at this standard is well suited to that workload, offering a durable surface that resists chipping better than earthenware alternatives while maintaining the character of a handmade finish.

Practically speaking, the Storm Coupe Dishes work well across a range of service styles:

  • Suitable for amuse-bouche, side dishes, and small sharing portions
  • Artisan finish supports informal fine dining and modern bistro concepts
  • Each piece varies subtly, giving a curated rather than uniform table setting
  • Porcelain construction handles regular commercial dishwashing reliably
  • Supplied in a pack of 12, reducing the cost per cover for smaller operations

These dishes are best suited to restaurants, wine bars, and hospitality venues where the tableware is intended to contribute to the overall aesthetic of the dining experience. They are less well matched to high-throughput canteen or contract catering environments where uniformity and speed of replacement are the priority. For operations requiring larger pack quantities or a complementary range of plate sizes, other pieces within the Potters Collection are worth considering alongside these.

If you are building a tableware scheme around this collection and want to discuss quantities, mix-and-match options, or how it sits alongside your existing serviceware, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently asked questions

Are the colour and finish variations between pieces intentional?

Yes — the Storm collection is handcrafted, so each dish carries subtle differences in tone and surface finish. This is a deliberate characteristic of the Potters Collection rather than a quality inconsistency, and it is worth setting that expectation with front-of-house staff so it can be communicated positively to guests.

Are these dishes suitable for commercial dishwashers?

Porcelain is generally well suited to commercial glasswasher and dishwasher cycles, and the Robert Gordon range is produced with commercial use in mind. As with all artisan-finished ware, it is worth following standard handling guidance — avoid stacking too heavily and use appropriate racking — to maintain the finish over time.

Is a pack of 12 sufficient for a typical restaurant service?

For most smaller operations covering up to around 30 to 40 covers, a single pack of 12 provides a working stock for one service with a modest buffer. Higher-volume venues or those running multiple sittings will typically want to hold two or three packs to allow for breakages and dishwasher turnaround. It is worth calculating cover numbers against expected breakage rates before committing to an opening order.
