Arthur Stourton or Sturton (died 1558) was an English courtier, keeper of royal jewels and robes, and Member of Parliament with Robert Southwell for the Westminster constituency in 1553.
The cloth of gold or silver and tissue fabrics were regarded like surplus "jewels" by the commission, and so these materials were not sold in the parishes but sent to Stourton at the Royal Wardrobe.
[28] A letter from the Loseley manuscripts collection from Henry Jerningham to Thomas Cawarden mentions a possible delivery of wardrobe stuff for revels at "Sturtuntes hand".
[30][31] His executors, William Stourton and Edmund Felton, transferred apparel in his custody to George Brediman, his successor in the royal wardrobe.
[32] George Brediman issued copes and vestments from the wardrobe to Kat Ashley, chief gentlewoman of the bedchamber to Elizabeth I in December 1560.
