Pure Jewel is a very exciting opportunity for jewellers as the show offers so much more than just jewellery. “Its long-standing heritage and focus on fashion can really help open these jewellers up to a wider audience of retailers, influencers and press that they might not usually get to meet. Olympia is also a prime location and it will be exciting to see jewellery on show again at this famous location.” Gloria Sandrucci, event director at Pure London, added: “I am delighted to welcome Andrew to the Pure London team, his knowledge and experience in the jewellery sector is second to none and he will be a great asset to the show. “Pure London is renowned globally as the most inspirational and trend-led fashion trade show and we’re looking forward to the buzz of the show coming alive again at Olympia with much-loved brands and designers returning.”
