At Huskmilk Pottery, we have been creating beautiful ceramics for over a decade. Our passion for pottery began when our founder discovered the art of ceramics while studying abroad in Japan.
We use traditional techniques to create our ceramics, including hand throwing, glazing, and firing in a kiln. Our attention to detail and commitment to quality ensure that each piece is unique and of the highest standard.
We offer a wide range of ceramics, including bowls, plates, cups, and vases. Our products are both functional and beautiful, and are perfect for everyday use or special occasions.

Kara creates her pottery in her small, sunny studio, outfitted with a potter's wheel, an electric kiln, plenty of shelving and lots of plants. Her favorite pieces to make, hand-carved mugs and vases, are tactile, one-of-a-kind creations that are timeless and irresistible.
A graduate of Le Cordon Bleu's patisserie program, her culinary training provided a foundation in timing and precision that she applies to her ceramics today. While skill and artistry are essential to making a beautiful pot, she believes above all, the piece must be authentic.
All of Kara's pottery is solely handmade by her and thrown on a potter's wheel. After trimming and carving, the pots are thoroughly air-dried before being bisque fired, which removes any remaining moisture and transforms the clay into ceramic material. They are glazed by hand and fired a second time to Cone 6 in an oxidation environment, melting the glaze into glass and bonding it with the clay.

I love the character, personality, and soul of handmade pottery, and I think that handmade pottery should look and feel handmade. The quirks and characteristics that make each piece unique and one-of-a-kind are what make them special.
Thank you for visiting! Kara
