Gorbon Ceramics

Upon invitation to visit the Gorbon Ceramic workshop in Istanbul, the designer duo was mesmerized by the production process and endless selection of colorful samples, which instantly reminded them of a pastry kitchen. Working closely with the dedicated team of artisans and craftsmen, they took inspiration from the colorful world of pastries to experiment with ceramics. Resulting in a variety of new forming techniques, unique handmade textures, and playful shapes such as donuts, biscuits, and eclairs in soft & inviting pastel tones to create a collection of bespoke ceramics with the irresistible allure of pastries.

Crafted to Delight

The Patisserie collection pushed the limits of ceramics production, incorporating materials like glazed lava stone and dry-pressed ceramics to create surreal furniture pieces. Drawing from Gorbon’s 75 years of experience, the designers explored an extensive library of glaze colors and textures to craft ceramics with unparalleled depth and vibrancy. Even new miniature glaze samples were developed for distribution to interior designers and clients. A bespoke “icing” decorating technique inspired by pastry chefs was developed, blending craftsmanship with whimsy.
