Toronto-based designer, stylist, and content creator Candace Alongi began designing mask chains in 2020 as a side-hustle to her popular lifestyle blog The Minted Mama and social account @themintedmama

Five years later, CALO JEWELRY is a high-quality, handmade jewelry brand that specializes in exclusive, demi-fine gemstone and freshwater pearl pieces that are sure to elevate even the most basic of looks.

In 2025 Candace added an expertly curated collection of statement vintage jewelry to her offering - the perfect compliment to her handmade designs.

The handmade collection is available to shop online or at select fine retailers, and the vintage collection is available exclusively online.
