Our History
Established in 2020, The Leake Co. carries forward a deeply personal and generational passion for artistic jewelry.
Named in honor of my great-grandmother’s family, the studio reflects a legacy rich with meaning & craftsmanship.
Inspired by my grandmother’s jewelry box — always filled with unique pieces, each with its own fascinating story — I wanted to bring a home for custom jewelry and personal shopping to Louisville.
The Leake Co. was created as a warm, inviting space for those seeking a different, more thoughtful approach to fine jewelry.
An Artistic Vision,
A Gemologist’s Expertise
Sarah Martin Rowe
My path to fine jewelry began as a creative pivot from a career in classical music. That shift led me to the Gemological Institute of America, where I earned my certification as a Graduate Gemologist and discovered a deeper passion for the art and science behind fine jewelry.
I’ve since worked with renowned independent jewelers and world-class designers whose expertise and artistry helped shape my approach to craftsmanship, artistry, and service. Their influence is reflected in every piece I design — thoughtful, enduring, and made with integrity.
At The Leake Co., I combine technical precision with a tailored, client-first philosophy. Whether guiding you through a bespoke engagement ring or selecting an heirloom-worthy piece, my goal is to offer an elite experience that’s as personal as the jewelry itself.
The Stories Behind the Sparkle
Real clients. Lasting memories.
And the unexpectedly easy journey of creating an heirloom.
Giving Back with Leake
At The Leake Co., we believe that meaningful jewelry should also create meaningful impact.
That’s why we’ve launched Giving Back with Leake — a quarterly initiative where we donate a portion of the saved processing fees to a carefully chosen non-profit organization.
When clients choose to pay via cash, ACH, or check instead of credit card, a portion of the money saved on processing fees is donated to support a new charity each quarter. It’s our way of turning everyday choices into lasting change.
Together, with our clients, we’re proud to support causes that matter and make a difference — one beautiful piece and one thoughtful donation at a time.
