Graham Stewart - Silversmith


Silversmith Graham Stewart trained at Gray’s School of Art in Aberdeen and has been running his own workshop and gallery in Dunblane since 1978.  He is a Freeman of the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths of the City of London and exhibits regularly at the annual Goldsmith’s Fair in London.

He produces sculptural pieces of silver from high profile commemorative presentation pieces to fine quality functional silver and uses traditional techniques such as raising, spinning, cold forging, plannishing, and chasing. He specialises in fine hand-cut engraving and also designs and makes a small range of fine jewellery.

In 2004 he won a commission by the Incorporation of Goldsmiths of the City of Edinburgh to produce a sculptural piece for the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh and the Honours of Scotland, which was unveiled by Her Majesty The Queen at the opening, is on permanent display in the entrance hall.

He participated in the Smithsonian Festival 2003 which focused on Scotland and as a result was commissioned by Glenfiddich to create a piece for the British Embassy to commemorate “Scotland at the Smithsonian”.

He designed a pair of claret jugs which are part of The Millennium Collection for Bute House commissioned by the Incorporation of Goldsmiths of the City of Edinburgh.

He has exhibited widely and his work is held in the private collections of Her Majesty The Queen, Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal, Baroness Thatcher and Mel Gibson.

He will be exhibiting at Goldsmith's Fair in London in October 2006.
