Pottery made by a mother’s loving hands, out on the Kansas prairie

Cups, bowls, spoons, and tiny tea sets, painted by hand with folk flowers and sunny faces or finished in speckled glazes. Every piece is one of a kind.

About Kaylan

Folk Floral Pottery is Kaylan's small studio on the Kansas prairie. She makes every piece by hand, then either paints it with folk flowers, suns, and birds or finishes it in a speckled glaze, so no two pieces come out quite the same.

She makes pottery for the table and the kitchen, pieces meant to be handled, washed, and used every day, along with a growing collection of miniature tea sets.

Looking for something specific?

Kaylan takes a small number of custom orders: a set of mugs for a wedding, a name carved into a platter, a glaze she hasn't tried yet. Send her a message on Etsy to ask about timing and price.

Custom orders are placed and paid for through Etsy.
