New Mexico Clay is a small Albuquerque-based retailer that supplies pottery equipment, ceramic materials, and precious metal clay for artists and hobbyists. Its lineage traces to Ann-Howe and Van-Howe ceramics, a Denver-origin operation that was sold in 1984 and renamed Ceramic King, with a shift in focus toward hobby ceramics. The present owner, Brant Palley, an Albuquerque native with a BFA from UC Irvine and an MFA from Otis Art Institute and Parsons, joined the business in 1985 and bought it from the Kings in 1987 after extensive retail training. In the retail art supplies sector, the company services customers engaged in ceramics and related crafts, reflecting its product mix and history. The organization operates with a small team, indicating a boutique market footprint within the Albuquerque area. Its long-standing local presence and specialization in clay-based crafts position it as a regional source for both equipment and materials.
