Bartholomew Jewelers

In her studio in Memphis, TN, Laurie Bartholomew makes custom jewelry from gold, silver, and gemstones. She strives to make her pieces both beautiful and practical as an artist. Laurie gets inspiration from her life's highs and lows, which she expresses in her work. Her aesthetic embraces contrast to create magic, meaning, and timelessness in her art. She typically utilizes colors, symbols, words, and metals to communicate an emotion or narrative. Additionally, Bartholomew Jewelry, the company that Laurie established in 1995, offers jewelry repair and custom pieces. Laurie graduated with a BFA from the Memphis Academy of Arts in 1983.
