tallini was founded by Lindsay Kim, a designer born in California and raised between the United States and South Korea. Growing up across cultures shaped her perspective early — blending industrial strength with artistic expression.

Lindsay graduated from The New School in New York, where she refined her creative voice and began exploring unconventional forms. Instead of following traditional jewelry codes, she chose a different language: tools. Hammers, saws, C-clamps — objects built for function — became the foundation of her wearable designs.

At tallini, industrial icons are transformed into jewelry that is bold, intentional, and unapologetic. Each piece reflects pressure, structure, and edge — reimagined as something personal.

Lindsay’s creativity has always been relentless. Her ideas are fueled by curiosity, craftsmanship, and lifelong inspiration from her parents — iconic figures in South Korea whose influence shaped her confidence to build something original.

tallini is where tools turn iconic.
