Our Story

 


We give beautiful vintage designer pieces a second life. We believe in sustainability and are on a mission to create a model where the beauty is the story, as well as the pieces themselves.


The story of each piece is unique and we want you to continue their journey. Our hand curated pieces are sourced from around the world. Our curators are truly global, searching for one-off pieces from Japan, the United Kingdom, France, the United States and everywhere in between.

Every Friday Candy designer piece is guaranteed authentic and of the highest quality.  We would love you to continue the story, shop sustainably, reduce your carbon footprint and give our designer pieces a second life. 



Friday Candy and Sustainability



At Friday Candy, sustainability is important to us. As well as supporting a second-life of these beautiful pieces, there are other efforts we are consciously working on for our environment.

When you purchase from us, your purchase will be sent out in a paper courier bag which is made from recycled and FSC certified paper. When you have finished with the bag it can easily be home composted (just remove the courier label) or recycled in your recycling bin.

If we are able to source pieces that come with their original packaging, we send out the pieces in these. Otherwise, we send out our pieces in a Friday Candy jewellery box which is made to be kept, to protect your piece and extend it's life further. When you are done with this box, the outer is also recyclable.

Our tissue paper that we wrap your pieces in to protect them is also FSC Certified, sourced from a forest and supply chain that is managed responsibly and sustainably. It is acid-free, made from cellulose fiber where the active acid pulp is eliminated during processing. It is also lignin and sulphur-free, so it won't leave behind any of these chemicals when decomposing. It is also printed using a soy-based ink. This means it doesn't leave behind petroleum based products when decomposing. It also helps to reduce air pollution during the drying process.

Lastly, for international orders we have partnered with DHL Express to ensure a fast 1 - 3 business day delivery, and we are off-setting carbon emissions on every shipment.
