About Papa Stour
Scottish designer and stylist Rosie Brown formed Papa Stour in 2005 to expose and sell works from some of Scotland's brightest and most exciting artists and designers.
Her qualifications of Printed Textiles at Duncan of Jordanstone in Dundee, and a Master of Design at Glasgow School of Art are supplemented by years in London as a textile designer, and then freelance interior stylist and a regular contributor to publications such as Elle Decoration, Living Etc and Homes & Gardens.
Each piece is considered, as something which you will love in your own home, or to gift to someone special. Just as when you visit a gallery, be prepared to browse and enjoy Papa Stour. We select and showcase only gorgeous pieces handmade in Scotland from artists we actually meet and speak to, rather than offering thousands of products.
Our artists and designers are involved in different disciplines but they all have talent, flair and in some cases pure eccentricity! The essence of the collection is a contemporary mix of ceramics, silver, leather and textiles from all over Scotland.
The pieces we offer are not "off the shelf" objects that can be delivered next day - they are made in small batches and often unique- and they are hand made in Scotland, with care!
