Glass Ceiling Earrings
Break the rules. Break the cycle. Break the highest of the glass ceilings!
In the 1980s, management consultant Marilyn Loden coined the phrase 'glass ceiling' to describe the metaphoric barrier that prevents women from rising into higher positions at work. The concept of breaking the glass ceiling continues to be relevant and now applies to the discrimination that minorities face as well. These earrings create a curious tension that’s sure to spark conversation.
They are made from a sheet of clear acrylic that takes on a greenish tinge from the edges, like a piece of window glass. The fractured texture is carved into the back side with a laser cutter. (It's also very hard to photograph! The best view of the fractured texture can be seen on the darkest background.) These earrings look great with your hair pulled back or short with light shining through.
