The eclectic mix of jewellery pieces from Australian design label stannard-inc. can evoke any number of responses from people who encounter them. Are they overtly masculine and raw? Do they reference history or some sort of post apocalyptic future? Are they for fashionable males, party girls or someone in between?

Established in ‘99, stannard-inc melds classic design with cutting-edge urban street style. Global fashion recognition began in late ‘08 when stannard-inc was profiled and described as having an ‘air of individuality’ & ‘ a profound effect’ by coolhunting.com, the influential design site.

Known for pieces that provoke spontaneous conversation with strangers, stannard-inc has been referred to in the press as ’the thinking person’s bling’. Hot sellers include the cool unisex ‘lover not a fighter’ cuff for the pacifists out there, and the prime & binary numbers cuffs for the geek crowd.

Claire Suzy Stannard is the creative force behind the label, and whether a piece is crafted from hand-cast bronze or sourced vintage brass, you can be sure that it will make heads turn.Claire studied Visual Arts at Sydney University, was finalist in the Powerhouse Museum Young Designer of the Year Awards & has participated in several group exhibitions.
