Willem Coenraad Brouwer (Leiden, October 19, 1877 – Zoeterwoude, May 23, 1933) was a Dutch ceramicist and sculptor.
He attended a Drawing School in his birthplace. From 1894 to 1898, he worked there in the studio for book decoration and letter cutting.
He then moved to Gouda, where he took up pottery at Goedewaagen. Brouwer joined the artists' group around 't Binnenhuis around 1900.
In 1901, Brouwer established his own ceramic company in Leiderdorp under the name Fabriek van Brouwer's Aardewerk. From 1906, he also produced building ceramics and garden ceramics, one example of which is the architectural ceramics he created for the Peace Palace in The Hague. He is considered a pioneer in this field.
He collaborated with architects such as Hendrik Petrus Berlage, Jacobus Johannes Pieter Oud, Willem Dudok, and Jan Wils. The factory was continued by his sons Klaas and Coen Brouwer.
