RAPAPORT... The Women’s Jewellery Network (WJN) has released the
#NoGlassCeiling social media campaign, in support of ambitious, career-oriented
women in the UK jewelry industry. 
The campaign, which the WJN shared over Instagram, Facebook and
Twitter, aims to shatter the perception that there is a glass ceiling on the level of achievement UK women in the jewelry industry can reach, the organization said
this week.
“We have created #NoGlassCeiling to allow women to visually
declare the viewpoint that the so-called glass ceiling designed to hold us back
doesn’t exist," said Victoria McKay, WJN founder. "What does exist is our shared ambition and determination to
grow our careers, businesses and skills to achieve true success in the UK jewelry
trade,” said WJN founder Victoria McKay.
The WJN launched the campaign ahead of International
Women’s Day on March 8, during which the WJN will host its first social event,
The Women’s Jewellery Network in Conversation. The night will feature
discussions with men and women who hold leading positions in the UK jewelry and fashion
industries, including Kate Flitcroft, head of jewelry and silver at Lyon &
Turnbull, and jewelry storyteller and influencer Beanie Major.
