Meet the Business Owner

Clark C.
Business Owner

Clark is the son of Cliff and Austin, the other two owners of Claydon Jewelers. 

     Cliff moved to Santa Monica in 1979 to study gemstones and diamonds at the Gemological Institute of America and had planned on moving back to New York where he grew up. Plans changed when it was still sunny and 70 degrees in December of that same year. 

     Austin got a call in January of 1980 from her then high school sweetheart, Cliff, asking if she wanted to come out to California. He had changed his mind and wanted her to help him start a jewelry store. After convincing her parents (they might have white lied and said it was a temporary thing) she decided to risk it all and move out west. Now, 30+ years later the risk has turned into a reward, and now their son, Clark, has joined them in this "crazy" journey.
