Our Roots
In the late 70's, in a garage in the Clarksville area of Austin, potter Craig Freiburger started a small clay company with the goal of providing an economic, convenient source of clay for Central Texas artists. In 1979, the business was renamed Armadillo Clay & Supplies and relocated to the East Side. With a lot of hard work and the help of some good friends, the property was rehabbed and the run-down warehouse was laboriously rebuilt using steel struts repurposed from the Armadillo World Headquarters.
Today, Armadillo Clay manufactures 24 different clay bodies and provides friendly service and quality supplies to potters, hobbyists, schools, and industrial customers all around Texas and beyond. Family-owned and -operated for over 40 years, we strive to treat every customer as a friend, not a potential sale.
