Taking influence from art, fashion, music, literature, and the natural world, Stephen’s collections are always fuelled by his own nomadic life experiences and cross cultural references, all the while paying homage to state-of-the-art techniques and British craftsmanship.

Since first established in 1989, Stephen continues to break the rules of fine jewellery with designs that are intelligent, thought-provoking, and visionary. Stephen’s keen eye for detail, commitment to ethical production and respect for traditional British craftsmanship and goldsmithing, have helped him achieve numerous accolades. Webster was bestowed with an honorary Master of Arts degree from the University of Creative Arts in 2007 for his outstanding contribution to the arts and holds the honour of being a Liveryman of the City of London.
