OUR STORY
Proudly Alaskan Made
At Reel AK Jewelry, we weave the soul of the Alaskan wilderness into each meticulously crafted piece. Our designer, Colleen Walker, not only creates stunning jewelry but also channels her deep connection to the rugged beauty of Alaska into every design.
Our jewelry is more than adornment; it's a wearable chronicle of the Alaskan way of life. Whether it's the iridescence of fish scales or the rustic charm of birch bark, each piece invites you to carry a piece of the Last Frontier with you. Join us in celebrating the wild beauty of Alaska with Reel AK Jewelry, where every piece tells a story, and nature's wonders are cherished in every design.
BRAND VISION
Nature's Palette, Crafted with Passion
Each piece in the Reel AK collection reflects the diverse hues and textures of Alaska. Colleen draws inspiration from the vivid landscapes, from the crystalline waters of the Cook Inlet to the majestic forests that stretch as far as the eye can see.
Her designs capture the essence of the outdoors, from the vibrant colors of the Northern Lights to the rugged charm of the Alaskan terrain.
MEET THE DESGINER - COLLEEN WALKER
“My jewelry is for those who love Alaska, and its beauty, so that they can take a piece of it with them wherever they go!”
Colleen is more than a designer; she's a storyteller, weaving narratives of family, nature, and resilience into each piece. While studying Fishery Biology at Humboldt State University, Colleen developed an deep appreciation for the beauty that nature offers. She met her wonderful husband Mark and the two of them started their life together in the beautiful Alaskan wilderness!
Her upbringing in a fishing family instilled a profound respect for the cycle of life, sustainability, and the art of transforming the often-overlooked into something extraordinary.
OUR COMMITMENT
Sustainable Craftsmanship at Its Finest
Reel AK Jewelry is a testament to Colleen's commitment to sustainability. Inspired by her husband's familys fishing legacy, she sources ethically harvested materials, including fish scales that would otherwise be discarded as waste.
By transforming these elements into exquisite jewelry, Colleen not only showcases the beauty of the Alaskan wilderness but also underscores the importance of mindful craftsmanship.
OUR LEGACY
From Us to You
The Walker family's fishing tradition serves as the backbone of Reel AK Jewelry. The salmon caught by Colleen's husband, Mark Walker, not only sustains their family but also provides the foundation for many of the jewelry pieces.
Every creation is a collaboration, a harmonious dance between nature, craftsmanship, and a deep-seated love for Alaska.
