Spear’s Review

Blackacre, Samuel Stirrat’s business, is all about ‘creating and appreciating all things of beauty, be it nature, people, art or jewellery’, according to its website.

Stirrat has a banking and accountancy background, having worked at UBS and then at PwC for nine years before founding Blackacre in 2017.

The jewellery firm is based near Chancery Lane and is known for creating personalised engagement rings. Stirrat is also known to view responsible luxury seriously and enjoys travelling with his team of gem workers, jewellers and designers to explore the provenance of the stones they source.
