A Shift In Perspective

Its about having people and new eyes it moves us forward through a hyper collaborative mode

Image

With the wearer at the centre of our world, every jewel crafted by a Walking Tree brand will always have one thing in common. It is precious first because of the meaning it holds.

Every design finds its inspiration in real, personal, intimately-shared insights. These true stories and precious moments are brought to life in every facet through a combination of exceptional skill and thoughtful design.

Gouache in progress for Signature label Aesthete

Our studios house some of the best talent in product design, who work in tandem with a world-class team of craftsmen, artists, visualisers, writers, poets, photographers, digital experts and innovators. Each piece is therefore a culmination of study, research and passion to be ahead of the curve.

Our Process: From Insight To Expression

Attention to form, material, story, provenance these are the factors which unites our processes.

We are inspired by aesthetics and trends that exist beyond jewellery as a category.

Vikram Singh has overseen celebrated collections with the house. His exceptional passion for design and unique ways of expression are attributes that are innate and, in many ways, alchemical.

“Good design should make you think, behave or react differently”

Vikram Singh, Evp Product Design, Design Studio - Brands

“There are creative businesses, and then there are the ones who are sharp businesses. We want to be both. The consumer insights is what makes our designs process both creative and sharp”

Ankit Mehta, Co - Founder

Generational Expertise

Uncompromising attention to detail

Insights are interpreted into tangible products through a detailed process that includes prototyping, ideation and creative disruption. In our cutting-edge facility based in Mumbai, all our products are designed and manufactured with one point of view – capturing emotion through intelligent design.

The making of a one-of-kind fine jewellery piece often begins with a hunt for extraordinary inspiration. Artistic sketches and elaborate water-colour renderings are created to depict the intricacies of the jewel, from exact depth and dimension to the shades and facets of the diamonds, to rapid prototypes made with cutting edge technology to visualise the piece in 3D, blending technology, innovation, craft and heritage all translated with modern meaning.

Designers & Engineers

Collaborations between artists, designers, engineers and craftsmen are just one vital component in keeping each piece we create fresh and invigorated.

Rather than relying primarily on the value of precious stones, our craft emphasises innovative techniques in handling materials, avant-garde cuts, and unique ways of setting gems.

Master jewellers model the framework either in wax or by directly hand-carving the design on a plate of the base metal, usually gold.

Every jewel is carefully handcrafted using only the most high-quality materials. Exacting standards in every stage of design and production ensure that each piece is as flawless

Fostering Innovative Artistry

At Walking Tree, creative teams are supported through a strong internal training program that nurtures young talent and helps harness their full potential. Simultaneously, regular workshops, international exposure, symposiums and seminars inspire new perspectives and spark imaginative expression.

Our designers are creative thinkers first, who are encouraged to travel for inspiration, think out of the box and experiment with both new technology and time-honoured techniques. This has led to the reinvention and reimagining of traditional jewellery categories such as Jadau, thus creating new desires in jewellery with products that are unmatched in every sense and – above all else – relevant, relatable and meaningful.
