Celtic Stone and Leather Chair Project
This stone and leather chair is a unique piece created for a private commission.

It’s an unusual way of bringing traditional stonecraft into the domestic space, and it is a real talking point in its new home!

An Enriching Experience [Review]

I highly recommend for anyone interested in stone carving to come on one of your courses.

Or anyone wanting something completely different to anything they've done before. The setting is peaceful. The scenery is stunning.

Being with you Victor in the studio was like reaching back into history. Your skill and knowledge is priceless.

You have to experience it to believe it and I think everyone should try this!

Downright Joyous! [Review]

Profoundly satisfying. Downright joyous! A day spent with Victor learning to shape stone was deeply peaceful and enlivening, going from never having used a chisel and a mallet before to becoming confident I could, and very much wanted to, carve on my own.
 

 
To have access to the advice and guidance, the more than 20 years of craftsmanship and knowledge, the skill and the appreciation of the medium that Victor possesses…to be able to observe and question and do all in the same day was very valuable to me.
 
He is an excellent teacher—knowledgeable, generous, clear, calm and patient . His kind encouragement and offers of support are likely to be exploited very soon – I’m already checking out the stone carving equipment available here in Dublin and anticipating when I might get back to the .
