Who Are We?

When you walk into Walker & Son, Inc., you come into a family owned and operated business. In November of 2013, Ernest Walker Sr., along with Ernest "EJ" Walker Jr., opened up Walker & Son, Inc. with the intentions of bringing high quality custom jewelry to the Northside of Richmond, Va. With hundreds of one of a kind custom pieces made over the past three years, Walker & Son, Inc. is quickly becoming the most talked about jewelry store in RVA!

The Walker Process


Step One
Many of our customers come to us with a custom piece already in mind. They know their likes and dislikes, and together we can come up with a masterpiece! Our amazing sketch artists will draw out your vision with every little detail in mind. Whether you want to use Gold, Silver, or Platinum, include gemstones or not, the possibilities are endless!


Step Two
Depending on the idea, we can now decide whether to make a wax carving of the design, or go straight to the metal construction of the piece. The difference? We do wax carvings for our more intricate and detailed pieces. This allows us to sculpt the perfect piece and change things, if necessary, with out losing metal.


Step Three
After carving a wax, the piece is then cast in a plaster-of-paris like material called Investment and baked until the wax is evaporated. Once the wax is melted out, it's time to melt down the metal of choice and throw it into the Investment casting using a centrifugal casting machine!


Step Four
After the design is made into metal, we can now clean it up and do all of the fine detail work
that makes each piece unique!
