Colour & Curiosity
Studio Emma is small design studio specialising in pigmented, cast concrete. Founded by designer Emma McDowall in 2016 from the comfort of her parent's shed. All of the work is carefully made from start to finish in our studio. Our material process is unpredictable which creates organic surface patterns and textural qualities, resulting in each piece being completely unique.

Wonderful gift for my friend’s new home!
Got my beat friend these little letters as a birthday-come-new-home gift and she loved them! They’re gorgeous colours and I’m sure will look great in their new home.

Beautiful!
I am just moving apartments, and I can't wait until I get to put this on display!
I love the juxtaposition between the beautiful delicate colour and the concrete- although it is a smooth surface! Will definitely buy from this artist again!

Lovely as ever
Very pleased with my new items. Got two letters as gifts for friends and a lovely little mini vessel for myself. Great customer service and packaging as always.

Stunning!
This was my second purchase from Emma’s Studio and I couldn’t be happier with my order! The detail in the vessel is beautiful and the colours are just perfect. It looks stunning on my mantelpiece and I can’t wait to add more to my collection!
Thank you Emma!

Love them!
A great colourful addition to any room. I bought these as a little surprise addition to our new home and my husband loved them (as do I)! Love that they’re totally different to mass produced items, plus they’re in great colours and excellently priced! What’s not to love?!

Love them
Bought '11' for my friends 30th for her new house. Without asking, Emma redid the first batch as there wasn't enough of a green I'd requested, which was so thoughtful. My friend loves them and it's feels really good to support an independent artist. Will definitely be buying something else !

A little bit of joy
I ordered the round tray and small square trays. They are absolutely gorgeous and make me smile everytime I see them

Square Tray
Excellent product, excellent service
I ordered 8 little letters to spell 'Beatrice', as a gift for my new baby niece. They look absolutely lovely and Emma went out of her way to get them to me at short notice, and accommodate my colour preferences. I would definitely shop here again!
