the brickroad story

our job is simple

We bring beautiful things to life and give 5% of all revenue so people can have therapy.

Not a story about a mug

Our focus is using the medium of everyday products to express permanence.

Exhausted of the Amazon-ification of the things we use, we set out across the globe to find the very best craftspeople, who were crazy enough to join us, to design the only one you need.

We only make each piece once, in limited amounts, and 5% of all revenue is donated to provide therapy for underserved people. We make things that we hope 25% of people will love and 75% are kind of confused by. We're built and run using our life savings and we care about making you happy so, so much.

How we work

1. We travel

So we go anywhere and everywhere around the world to find good-hearted craftspeople with something to say.

2. We collaborate

We work hand-in-hand, in their environment, to bring the concept from idea to reality.

3. We handle logistics

We take care of funding, distribution, supply chain management, packaging, etc.

4. We talk about it

We tell people about what we've created together. If we do a good job, we get to come to work the next day...That's it.

Thank you so much for joining us on this quest. It wouldn't happen without you.

Maruasa Porcelain Factory

Our manufacturing partner is a legendary family company that has been making porcelain cups for over 100 years in the mountains of Tajimi, Japan.

Maruasa uses a unique manufacturing process that subjects their products to 24 hours of firing at 1,300°C, including reducing the oxygen of the kiln, which creates a high-density, high purity porcelain that is heavy duty, with strong durability, and features a hand-feel texture that is without comparison.
