About

Stone Creation Studio was born from a passion for working with stone. What began as a personal interest has grown into a specialist stone carving studio, creating handcrafted memorials, bespoke lettering, plaques and carved artwork in British stone and slate.

With a background in graphic design, I have spent more than a decade developing my skills as a stone carver through hands-on experience, specialist courses and a part-time apprenticeship. Every commission begins with hand-drawn sketches and carefully considered lettering, designed to complement both the character of the stone and the story it is intended to tell.

Working from my studio in Cambridgeshire, I combine traditional carving techniques with thoughtful design to create unique pieces that are both beautiful and enduring. Whether carving a memorial, commemorative plaque or decorative artwork, my aim is to create work with meaning, integrity and lasting quality.

I am proud that my work has been exhibited throughout the East of England, including at Ely Cathedral and Snape Maltings in Suffolk.
