Born in the English city of Kent in 1928, Andrew Clunn (1928-2016) launched the eponymous jewelry trademark in 1981. Incorporated 42 years ago, Andrew Clunn Ltd. had been active for more than three decades and ceased to exist in 2013. In fact, before launching his own jewelry company, Clunn was already a well-known designer.
Clunn came to the US in 1951 and began his career at the Matson Navigation Company, where he worked for several years. However, in the early 1960s he decided to connect his life with the jewelry business. So, in 1963, he began his fast-paced career at the famous jewelry company David Webb. There, he made a successful career from an apprentice to the right hand of the famous designer. Noteworthy, in design and sales, he dealt with stellar clients including Elizabeth Taylor, Diana Vreeland and Wallis, Duchess of Windsor.
In 1975, when David Webb died, Andrew Clunn moved to England and became managing director of Bonds Jewelers in London. However, within five years he returned to New York to open an eponymous company and a boutique on Madison Avenue.
Creating jewelry, the designer traditionally used precious metals and stones – gold, platinum, diamonds, rubies, emeralds, sapphires, etc. The maker’s mark includes “18k” and “A. Clunn” in capital letters.
