Rosie Lillis Communications enlists stars of British jewellery making for Afghanistan women’s charity auction

In light of the catastrophic fall of the Aghan government following the US-led withdrawal of NATO troops from the country, UK PR firm Rosie Lillis Communications has announced the launch of ‘Jewellers for Afghanistan’ – a charity initiative bringing together 25 British independent jewellers who have each generously donated a piece of jewellery as part of an online auction to raise funds for the Women for Afghan Women charity.

The auction, which is being organised in collaborating with Roseberys London Fine Art Auctioneers, will feature designs from iconic British jewellers including Solange, Annoushka, Theo Fennell, Pippa Small and Shaun Leane as well as emerging talent including Jessie Thomas, Bear Brooksbank, Liv Luttrell and Christopher Thompson Royds. Each designer has donated a piece of jewellery retailing between £270 and £1,750, with pieces available to bid on via Roseberys London Fine Art Auctioneers online bidding platform RoseberysLive.

The official online bidding will run for one week from Monday 27 September to Monday 4 October 2021, with 100% of proceeds going directly to Women for Afghan Women (www.womenforafghanwomen.org): a grassroots women’s rights organisation which is helping to evacuate and provide urgent resources, shelter and care to vulnerable women, children and families during the ongoing crisis.
