About David Stepan

David Stepan enjoys and explores the use of salvaged materials. From the warmth of copper and brass, and even the way the fingerprint of energy is immediately forever captured in a hammered finish. Employing his Bachelor of Fine Arts training, and decades of experience as a bespoke furniture designer-maker he blurs the lines between Art, fashion, service and décor, creating objects that transcend their purpose. His passion is now directed to a more immediate expression of his interest in materials. Especially how objects from sustainably sourced materials can look and feel beautiful, and have their story evolve. His favourite moments are the delight of someone discovering a bee, dragonfly or naughty word captured in the jewelry. Living in Nova Scotia, Canada with his wife Jody, they are renovating a derelict early 1900’s feedstore to become their home and studios. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyJLyQ4Lock&list=PLOBVx1cFYt64fGX0F8dKLsu16B5TmzjTR Read their story
