Walker Jewelry is a handmade jewelry studio and boutique located in East Nashville, Tennessee. The business describes its work as “jewelry made by hand in Nashville Tennessee from sustainably sourced gems and metals.” It is operated by jeweler Lindsay Walker, who designs and produces pieces at the studio’s bench, and it combines a retail jewelry collection with custom commission work, permanent jewelry services, and hands-on ring-making classes. The studio emphasizes traditional techniques, high-quality metals, and carefully sourced gemstones.
Services
Walker Jewelry offers several distinct services:
- Bespoke and custom jewelry, bench-made from start to finish by Lindsay Walker
- Permanent jewelry appointments
- Ring-making classes and workshops for individuals, couples, and groups
- Repurposing of heirloom gold and gemstones into new pieces
For custom work, the studio follows a process that begins with a consultation, followed by hand sketches, bench production at the Nashville studio, and progress photos shared with the client during creation. The company notes that “keeping production small and handmade allows for changes to be made during the process.” Ethically mined gemstones and recycled diamonds are commonly used, and clients may bring their own gold and gemstones. A bespoke consultation is offered free, with a design fee listed at $100.
The studio’s class offerings include a Stacker Ring Class ($120), a Gemstone Stacker Ring Class ($140), a Make Your Own Wedding Rings Workshop for Two ($790), a single-person wedding ring workshop ($490), a Private Jewelry Lesson ($120), the Ultimate Jewelry Experience ($140), and a 14kt Yellow Gold Ring Class ($400). In the wedding ring workshops, couples learn traditional goldsmith techniques, including how to use a jeweler’s saw, and craft their rings from stock material.
Products
The retail collection includes rings, necklaces, earrings, and special occasion and bridal pieces such as engagement rings and wedding bands. Materials used include solid gold, platinum, and palladium silver, with gemstones such as emeralds, diamonds, sapphires, garnets, topaz, and opals. The site also lists permanent jewelry bracelets and a selection of pieces under $100.
