Meet Northamptonshire-based blacksmith, Stuart Makin, who was commissioned by the Royal Armouries in 2016 to respond creatively to the Staffordshire Hoard.
In this film, by Zsolt Sander of Mothership UK, Stuart describes his practice as a blacksmith, his creative inspiration and process, and how his impressive final sculpture was made.
The Warrior Treasures exhibition is now closed, but you can still find Stuart Makin's final sculpture on display in the Hall of Steel at the museum in Leeds.
