Core Values
Sharing my knowledge through ring making classes for Nashville visitors to wedding ring workshops for couples is an amazing way to keep craft alive, inspire confidence, and possibly explore new careers for aspiring jewelry makers.
I began my journey in metal working 15 years ago as a coppersmith, hand making reproductions of antique copper lanterns found in my hometown of Charleston, SC for the Urban Electric Company. As a passionate craftsperson, all of Walker jewelry is handmade using traditional goldsmith/silversmith bench techniques.
Responsible Gem Sourcing may seem daunting at times, but I carefully select my suppliers for their transparent sourcing and quality gemstones. My suppliers know where the gemstones come from and give back to the communities where they are sourced as well. I also gladly work with existing heirloom diamonds, gemstones, and solid gold supplied by customers.
Each year I make sure to be involved in volunteering within the local arts community. Past and present non profits of involvement include Tennessee Craft and The Arts and Business Council.
