About Me

At Hickman Pottery, we believe that every mug, bowl, and vase has a story to tell—a story shaped by skilled hands, fired in tradition, and glazed with creativity. Founded by Harrison O. Hickman, a professional potter and instructor based in Augusta, Georgia, Hickman Pottery celebrates the timeless art of wheel-thrown pottery.

Harrison discovered his passion for pottery as a way to blend craftsmanship with personal expression, drawing inspiration from his journey of growth and recovery. As a seasoned instructor, Harrison’s teaching approach emphasizes the meditative and transformative power of working with clay—a philosophy evident in each piece he creates.

Every item at Hickman Pottery is hand-thrown and finished in our studio, designed to be both functional and beautiful. Whether you’re sipping coffee from a perfectly crafted mug or displaying flowers in a one-of-a-kind vase, our pieces are made to enrich your everyday life with authenticity and charm.
