Gaspard Robert (1722-1799) was the founder of a factory that made faience in Marseille, France, between 1750 and 1793.

Joseph Gaspard Robert first worked in a porcelain factory, and then returned to Marseille in 1750.

In 1777 Joseph Gaspard Robert was visited by the Count of Provence, later Louis XVIII of France, who found that he was busily engaged in manufacturing porcelain.

[2] His factory exported to Northern Europe and England, where his links with Freemasonry opened opportunities for him.

[1] The Robert pottery products typically use monochrome sepia, green, pink or blue decorations, or multicolored landscapes, animals, fish or flowers.
