Candy Spender Jewels

I started making jewellery out of polyclay, stones, crystals and objet trouvé in 1984 in Adelaide but wanted to expand my field and so moved to Melbourne in 1986.  My studio grew and by 1989, I had customers like Adele Palmer (Jag), Bettina Liano and Georges.  

Throughout the nineties my fashion jewellery pieces often appeared in mainstream publications, media events as well as on Australian fashion and couture cat-walks.

In 1995, I opened a beautiful store in High Street, Prahran East, where customers, clients and brides would enjoy our bespoke services, and have something styled and made especially, or browse and choose from the ever-changing ranges and one-of-a-kind pieces on display.

In the small manufacturing studio at the back of the store, we were always busy on the benches, creating the pieces we supplied to other exclusive boutiques.

In 2000, at the height of CSJ's wholesale operation, stockists included over thirty exclusive Australian fashion boutiques; International fashion houses such as Browns in London; several galleries in North America, as well as an exclusive fashion boutique in Hong Kong.
