Handmade in Los Angeles, California.
My passion is producing beautiful functional tableware in a raw, natural style, with experimental glaze formulas and rich marbling. My design philosophy focuses on ergonomics, surface texture, and simplicity of form.
A lifelong artist with a background in photography, Kathryn Hillier took up ceramics five years ago and quickly became captivated with the medium's tactile complexity, visual beauty, and endless technical challenges.
Though drawn to understated, functional designs imbued with a timeless quality, Kathryn enjoys testing limits within those guidelines. Whether tinkering with glaze recipes, combining different clays for striking marbled patterns, or exploring the coloristic possibilities of low-fire earthenware, Kathryn always seeking new ways to surprise and delight lovers of elegant tableware and unique objects.
