Brian is co-owner of the Brickyard and has been a full-time potter since 1980 when he and Mary established the business. Brian does primarily wheel-thrown pottery that’s made to be used every day in the kitchen. Working mostly in stoneware, he produces a wide range of items. Casseroles, soup tureens, platters, bowls and crocks are just a few of the pieces he makes. He also does sets of custom dinnerware by special order.

Our regular customers are pleased to find that new items are always being added as well as new glazes.

Co-owner with husband Brian, Mary is a potter who builds and fabricates with slabs of clay. She produces functional pieces such as trays, vases and dinnerware. But Mary’s passion is producing clay fish. Whether it’s a functional fish pitcher, a giant fish platter or a fish garden piece, she has stayed with the fish motif for several years, creating deeply textured, colorful creatures.
