Morning Sun Pottery is an independent pottery studio run by Krysta Oland in New Brunswick. Reflecting the colours and textures of her lifetime lingerings alongside the Sea, Krysta works both sturdy white and red stoneware clays, making beautiful functional pots for everyday use.
Her focus is to bring earthy-wild and useful pots back into the home. Her pieces complement the ceremony of food preparation, food presentation, and the delightful and sumptuous daily rhythm of food enjoyment. Krysta strives to create simple elegant vessels that feel buttery smooth to the touch, hold heat generously and clean well in both the soapy warm dishwater of the sink and the steaming hot scrub of any dishwasher.
Krysta Oland is owner and potter of Morning Sun Pottery on the East Coast of Canada. Krysta has been working clay since her early childhood play alongside coastal waters. For the past ten years Krysta has been growing her pottery and selling throughout the Maritime provinces of Canada. She developed her forms and glazes after a blend of private lessons and college ceramic courses at the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design. Krysta’s pottery studio is in her home nestled into the gentle hills enveloping the village of Harvey Station, also in New Brunswick. She is a juried member of the New Brunswick Crafts Council.
Obsessed with the personality of the perfect mug and the daily ritual of tea and coffee, Krysta has created several mug forms that hold comfortably in the hand. After spending years of her life in large cities in both Canada and the southwestern United States, Krysta is passionate about creating “memories in a mug”, meaning that each mug carries in it the memory of summertimes close to the Sea.
