Stuart Devlin (1931 - 2018) was an Australian-born artist and metalworker. In 1958 he was awarded a scholarship to study gold and silversmithing at the Royal College of Art in London. Here, he received the prestigious two-year Harkness Fellowship from the Commonwealth Fund and spent his fellowship studying at Columbia University in New York. After briefly returning home to Australia to teach, Devlin continued his career in London. His work was widely acclaimed, and he was given the Royal Warrant of Appointment as Goldsmith and Jeweller to Her Majesty the Queen in 1982. Today he ranks as one of the greatest contemporary gold and silversmiths of our time.
