Clay facing brick types

Stock bricks
These are machine-moulded bricks with a ‘frog’ indent. The use of sand to release the brick from the mould contributes to its soft appearance and slightly irregular shape.

Handmade bricks
These are hand thrown bricks with a distinctive creased texture.

Machine-moulded handmade bricks
These are machine thrown bricks with a subtle creased texture.

Waterstruck bricks
These are moulded bricks released from the mould by water. They are solid and contain no holes or frogs. The use of water, together with the wetness of the clay, produces a smooth and lipped edge or arris.

Extruded/Wirecut bricks
These bricks are made by extruding clay through a dye and cutting the brick-shaped column with a wire. This process produces a smooth brick, more regular in shape, with sharp clean edges. Surface textures can be applied by adding sand or texturing the face.
