Decadently colorful handmade ceramics
Huskmilk Pottery is a solo ceramics studio in Atlanta, Georgia. Every piece is carefully crafted by me, Kara Klimshuk, with the intention of making small, daily moments special - the mug you reach for again and again, a vase of flowers on your nightstand, a bowl of fruit on your kitchen counter. You can learn more in the About section, see a selection of past work in the Gallery, and purchase products on the Shop page.
‘Simple but effective‘ is my mantra for every piece I make. Crisp lines, perfect circles, friendly ovals - I use simple elements carefully applied to create designs that are structured, but not mechanical.
Then, the emotional aspect is considered - energizing bold and bright colors, soothing pastels, warm and earthy neutrals, or classic black and white. It might be ‘just a mug’, but it should still make you feel something - a connection to the person who made it, the qualities that drew you to it so you had to have it, knowing that it was made for someone to cherish. Every piece you collect should feel like it was made just for you.
While I spend a great deal of time ensuring my ceramics are beautiful to look at, they also must be functional. I use durable stoneware and porcelain clay that can withstand daily use. With proper care, ceramics can last many lifetimes, so knowing that my ceramics will be around for a long time, it’s important to me that they are worthy of a long life and taking up the space they occupy. My ceramics are carefully crafted with fine attention to detail, are microwave and dishwasher safe, and I only use food safe and lead free glazes.
