Krysti Huber

Scarlet Oak Ceramics is a small-batch pottery studio based out of Bright, Ontario. What started as a hobby for purchasing pottery has transformed into a passion for creating functional pottery. As a coffee lover, the bulk of my creations are mugs.

Throughout the COVID pandemic, I found myself overwhelmed trying to balance motherhood, a 9-5 job I wasn't really into, and further developing my ceramic skills. Once my children were in bed, I would put on Ben Howard and hone in over the wheel throwing until I went to bed. Finally gaining enough confidence and a 'what the heck' attitude, I officially started a business and began attending shows to sell my creations.

Then something magical happened. This past year I was selected as an emerging ceramic artist with the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery funded by KW art fund. Through this residency I have been able to make so many wonderful connections in the local pottery scene and have truly been humbled by the support they have given me. I have an education in interior design, and I love to make functional ceramics that double as decor.
