Spoil Your Mum This Mother's Day With 20% Off Robert Gordon

Mother's Day Must Haves

If you’re a fan of the local design scene, you’ll already be familiar with Robert Gordon. The beloved family business is one of the last remaining production potteries in Australia – and they’re well known for their high-quality Australian made and imported ceramics and homewares.

We’ve hand selected a line-up of our favourite Robert Gordon bowls, vases and mugs (to name a few!) that we think your mum will love – and TDF readers can shop the range with a generous discount of 20%!

Robert Gordon has been creating beautiful homewares in Melbourne for over 75 years, so they know a thing or two about producing high-quality pieces that stand the test of time. If your mum doesn’t already have her shelves lined with Robert Gordon’s timeless ceramics, now might be the best time to start her collection!

Shopping the Robert Gordon collection is an opportunity to support a local family business filled with passionate, talented craftspeople, while also scoring an extra special piece for mum.

One of our favourites from Robert Gordon this year is their elegant take on a classic Mother’s Day gift – a mug! The Canvas Mug features a modern, handle-free hug-mug shape in a white gloss glaze — it’s a definitive upgrade from some of the ‘world’s best mum’ mugs we’ve seen in our time!

Our other picks include  The Fruit Bowl and matching Cake Stand from the brand’s Poet’s Dream collection featuring tactile, ridged pedestal bases that will (literally) elevate your mum’s prized lemons and star baking! There’s also something very elegant about the smooth silhouettes of the Boat Vase and the Scallop Vase.

One of the best parts is how good the entire range looks all together; so if you’re feeling generous, why not make the most of the discount and buy a few pieces for mum, and a few for you! See the TDF Mother’s Day edit of the Robert Gordon collection here.

Robert Gordon Mother’s Day offer:

20% off the entire Robert Gordon online store until Sunday May 1. (Excludes Robert Gordon Interiors, workshops, and pottery wheels.) Terms and conditions apply.
