Stuart personally designed and made all his work, but with commissions the process was bespoke to the clients’ requirements, whether it’s the size of the space or matching the colour of the carpet.

“I found working on commissions incredibly rewarding. It was a fresh challenge that often took me out of my comfort zone. Whether it was an adaptation of an existing design, like a larger version of a vase, or a wall art installation for a hotel. I loved seeing the clients’ reaction to the final piece: From the seed of their initial idea, into a unique work of art through my inspiration, design and making skills. I no longer have my own hot working studio – but could be tempted out of retirement for the right project so please still get in touch”

Stuart worked on a wide variety of projects from large installations to individual bowls, for large projects he still takes commissions from private, public and corporate clients.
