Welcome to Riiko Ceramics. We are a small, family run, Australian owned on-line business. Riiko Ceramics offers a large range of Sargadelos products for the table. We only sell Sargadelos and we are the only suppliers in Australasia of this little known but well respected Spanish company.
So how did we start out? When we visited Galicia, in the NorthWest of Spain in 2008 we were looking for a dinner set, to remind us of all things Spanish when we returned home. Wandering around Lugo, we stumbled upon a Sargadelos Gallery, which was truly a feast for the eyes. They had a huge range of beautifully designed dinnerware, coffee and tea sets, soup tureens, sculptures, figurines and jewellery. Being on a budget, we finally settled for some plates to make up a dinner set. Hours later we left with our plates - expertly packed, which then travelled with us by car to Ayaz, where we were staying on a farm, then by air from Santiago de Compostela to London and eventually home to Sydney.
The plates did remind us of Spain and Galicia, and we just had to have more. We discovered that Sargadelos is pretty well unknown and unavailable in Australia. So after many months we finally developed our website and went live in 2008. We are small and exclusive. You may find that some of the Sargadelos pieces become valuable collectables over time, so we will let you know when we have stock that is from a limited edition.
We hope you enjoy browsing the site, we love Sargadelos and we know you will too.
