Cindy David Designs

Throughout history, every culture has used jewelry as a means of expression.

Its purpose has been to symbolize unions, commemorate births, be worn as protection, and is valued in spiritual and healing practices. As an adornment, jewelry is meant to be pleasing to the eye and senses. Cindy David, founder and master designer of Cindy David Designs, is rooted in these principles and dedicated to producing high-quality, one-of-a-kind pieces of “wearable art.”

Cindy’s Mediterranean heritage, extensive world travels, and innate artistic talents come together to create her original designs, using natural Gemstones, Semi-precious stones, Swarovski Crystals, Freshwater pearls, and Silver and Gold components. Cindy allows herself to marry stones and metals not traditionally imagined, yet when combined form beautiful works of art that adorn the wearer with vivid color and will be treasured for years to come.

Cindy also designs custom pieces for her clients upon request, utilizing their input along with her gift of color and materials to style and create an individualized work of art. Cindy David Designs is a Nashville-based company dedicated to providing beautiful jewelry for all.

Over the years, her designs have been featured in many prestigious Art Museums across the country including the Ringling Brothers Museum of Art (Sarasota), Dallas Museum of Art, The High (Atlanta), Knoxville Museum of Art, The Frist (Nashville), etc. In addition to the art museum circuit, she has sold her designs in many high-end boutiques all around the country.

She has exhibited in many high-end Art & Craft Shows across the country. She has been featured in Nashville Lifestyles magazine, had her jewelry featured on Today in Nashville, and is constantly wearing her own designs where women will literally buy things off her neck, wrists, and fingers! She specializes in doing custom jewelry designs for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, keepsakes, bespoke jewelry and “just b/c” gifts. Every piece is a piece of art for her and designed with much love.

Cindy David Yoga

Cindy David has been practicing yoga for over 20 years now and it has had a holistic life-changing impact in every area of her life.

After an intensive 4-month teacher training, Cindy emerged like a phoenix from the ashes with this profound sense of inner well-being, a new sense of confidence, and the ability to start speaking her own inner truth. Since that time, she has become certified in Kundalini Yoga and started to directly work with the Chakra energy system. Depending on the student, she offers Vinyasa/Power Flow Yoga and Kundalini. Oftentimes, she combines both of these types of yoga in her classes in her own signature program, “FLowlini”.

During the pandemic, she was one of the first yoga teachers to go online and started offering “FB lives” just to get people moving and out of the COVID crazies.

She works with private clients all the time and started working with a fun group of 75-85 year olds. She learns as much from them as they learn from her. Additionally, Cindy has taught all over Nashville at Studio Indigo, Small World Yoga, and the Gordon Jewish Community Center.

In the community, she teaches at Faith Family Medical Center, The Next Door (a recovery center for women in addiction), and the Women’s Prison. She also teaches in high-end apartment complexes from Sylvan Park, to the Gulch and everywhere in between.

Lastly, she hosts fun yoga events – Yoga Brunches, Yoga & Mimosas, and 1/2 day retreats from her Nashville home backyard.

Cindy David, Owner, Cindy David Designs & Cindy David Yoga

Cindy has been designing jewelry for the past 20 years. She has come a long way from working with plastic beads and plated metals being sold at the I-24 Expo Center and Flea Markets. And, even then her designs sold out at these shows. While working at Coca-Cola, she got her “big break.” While running errands for her then boss, she ran into a lady at Starbucks who complimented her on her jewelry and Cindy shared that she was a “jewelry designer.” She was intrigued and asked if Cindy would come to her small real estate office.

Cindy showed up to that tiny real estate office of 4 women and not only sold out of her current designs, but took orders for the same pieces! She made more money in that 1.5 hour appointment than in a whole week working at Coca-Cola! Shortly, after that fortuitous meeting, she left Coca- Cola and Cindy David Designs was born. The rest is HER-story!

Cindy David has been practicing yoga for over 20 years because it brought a sense of calm and inner peace that she had only heard about through “Spiritual Masters” but didn’t think was available to her. While in a Hot Vinyasa Class, the teacher’s words made such an impact on her that she signed up immediately for Teacher Training immediately and has now been teaching for 3 years.

Cindy lives in Nashville with her two rescue cats. After her two loves of yoga and making jewelry, Cindy loves travel and cooking.
