Hello, I am Maya Martin
…a stonemason in Hampshire, specialising in letter carving and stone carving, hand carved the traditional way in my workshop in Hampshire.
Commissions are one of the most important and satisfying parts of my work. I love to create something personal that is unique that is meaningful to someone. Have a look at the following pages to see more about the process and what I do.

Headstones, Commemorative and Cremation Plaques
Creating a memorial is a way to honor the life of someone we loved. By making something beautiful you can express to the world the respect and admiration you have for those who had been part of your life.
The memorial stone is a way of allowing that person to be remembered and a place where one can go to focus their thoughts and memories. It can remind you fondly, and highlight the individuality to the world, of the life you are commemorating.
Boulders, Gravemarkers
and Plaques
A pet can be such an important part of our life and grieving for the loss of a pet can be a difficult experience.
After your pet has passed away, you may want to hold a funeral or memorial for them. Once you’ve given yourself time to grieve, you might start feeling like you want to celebrate your pet’s life and focus on the happy memories of your time together. Many people can find the process of creating a stone in their memory an important step in the bereavement process.
House Signs, Business Signs
and more
Many people take a lot of pride and effort on the exterior of their house, with flowers and plants, or a nice porch or paved driveway. But usually the first thing someone will look for and see when visiting your home or business will be the house name or number. It is something that can say much about who you.
Sculpture, Sundials, Bird Baths, Garden Ornaments
My first love of stone was 3D carving and stone masonry, so although now my main work and focus is in lettering and 2D relief carving, I still love to carve sculptures, bird-baths and other garden ornaments.
