Stone carving commissions & courses based in the Marshwood Vale, West Dorset. The Dorset Stone Carver specialises in beautiful, hand crafted, bespoke stonework. We take pride in the fact that all our pieces are carved by hand in house by a talented crafts person using traditional tools and techniques that have barely changed for centuries. We work closely alongside our clients to ensure that they
are happy with every last detail of our work. All products are carved from natural stone and are completely unique. We have worked extensively within the heritage industry and alongside artists, designers and architects to create stunning ornamental stonework, bespoke promotional items, high end signage, lifestyle objects and much more. New for 2024!! We are now running stone carving and sculpture courses from our studio based in the rolling hills of the Marshwood Vale within the AONB of West Dorset. We offer courses for all levels, from complete beginners looking to test the waters or just have some fun through to more experienced stone workers looking to hone their skills and everything in-between. We are also happy to tailor an experience to meet your needs or host away days for you and your colleagues. Courses are taught using traditional tools and methods which have barely changed since medieval times. We feel it is so important to keep these skills alive and want to share our excitement for the craft with future generations. Stone carving is good for mind, body and soul! Local towns Bridport, Lyme Regis and Charmouth are a stones throw away as is the world heritage site of the Jurassic coast with all its fossil hunting delights. Camping is available within a couple of minutes walk from the studio and there are also plenty of B&Bs, hotels and campsites within the surrounding area.
