MARYHILL CLAYWORKS
sculpture and pottery of Jacques Schickel
Welcome to Maryhill Clayworks Studio Store. Assembled here are my best designs for your shopping pleasure. You may find a beautiful bowl for yourself, a wedding or baby gift, or an ornament for all seasons. I hand make each piece in my Freeville, NY studio in the Finger Lakes region. I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in sculpture from Boston University in 1985 and worked as a portrait sculptor for a monument company in Barre, VT and as a designer for the MacKenzie-Childs pottery company in Aurora, NY.
My purpose is to create beautiful and joyful things for you to use.
All the best to you.

"I am a proud collector of the beautiful work of Jacques Schickel. Every time I use a bowl, vase or plate from Maryhill Clayworks, I'm reminded of a country garden on a languid summer day."
Amy Dickinson, syndicated advice columnist, "Ask Amy"
"Jacques,
Your bowl is being adored in Vermont, your whispering rabbit is being cherished in D.C., and your fish is delighting my mother in Pleasantville. Thank you, thank you! - Betsy"
