He extended his talents to making very stylized Art Deco jewelry using rhinestones in the colors of genuine stones on gold plated metal. He also created sculpture-like jewelry in sterling silver. With his short jewelry making career coming to an abrupt end in World War ll, his jewelry is very rare and highly collectible. McClelland Barclay jewelry is not to be confused with Barclay jewelry also manufactured around the same time. McClelland Barclay jewelry is marked with his full name. McClelland Barclay's life ended when his ship was torpedoed near Australia in July, 1943.
