Meet David
Old Town's Master of Metal and Stone.
For over four decades in Old Town Alexandria, David Martin has transformed precious metals and stones into wearable art. Trained as a medical illustrator and sculptor, he sees what others cannot—the hidden geometry in every stone, the life waiting inside every piece of metal.
His hands don't just set gems; they solve puzzles, salvage forgotten heirlooms, and breathe new stories into old gold. Here, jewelry isn't manufactured. It's reimagined, one singular piece at a time.
