Among the standout pieces featured in this edition is a remarkable creation by artist Heather Guidero, represented by Pistachios Contemporary Art Jewelry located in Chicago, Illinois, United States. Available for a retail price of US$1,695, Guidero’s brooch and necklace combination features a stunning lilac-colored druzy stone that sparkles with exceptional brilliance. Complemented by handmade oxidized sterling silver tassels, this one-of-a-kind piece exhibits a remarkable degree of dynamic movement. Because the design includes an integrated bail, this versatile creation can be worn effortlessly either as a striking brooch or as an elegant necklace. Inquiries regarding this work can be directed to Meg Nash via the gallery’s marketing department.
Exploring alternative approaches to form and wearable sculpture, the Wearable Art Museum presents Perch, a 2026 brooch crafted by the artistic duo 2Roses with a retail price of US$750. Known for creating small-scale, one-of-a-kind sculptures engineered to be worn anywhere on the body, 2Roses pairs two hollow forms covered in meticulous polymer clay tesserae in this piece. Each individual tile is carefully cut and finished prior to being set, ensuring that the entire surface shimmers dynamically as the wearer moves. One form is dark and closed, while the other is pale and open, sharply tipped against the first and maintained in a state of permanent tension and balance. The wearer ultimately completes the composition by deciding precisely where on the body the work is positioned and at what angle, effectively recomposing the sculpture through intentional placement. Lisa M. Berman serves as the primary contact for the museum.
Crossing the globe to the Southern Hemisphere, Fingers Gallery in Auckland, New Zealand, highlights the work of Becky Bliss with a series of pendants titled Play Time, created in 2024 and retailed at NZ$750 each. Bliss, who initially trained as a graphic designer before transitioning into a contemporary art jeweler, boasts a prestigious exhibition history that includes selection for the renowned Schmuck special exhibition in Munich in both 2015 and 2020. Her Play Time series investigates color, form, and gender conventions while subverting traditional expectations through endless combinations, demonstrating the fluidity of youth and the boundaryless nature of play. By anthropomorphizing the fundamental building blocks of child development—formalized in the early 19th century by Friedrich Froebel, the founder of the kindergarten system, through a series of instructional "gifts"—Bliss plays directly with the geometric shapes of Gift #2, incorporating circles, squares, and triangles into mild steel, sterling silver, paint, and cord. Lisa Higgins manages inquiries for the Auckland gallery.
In Nijmegen, Netherlands, Galerie Door presents an untitled 2026 brooch by celebrated artist Daniel Kruger, priced at 2,000 euros. Kruger’s practice consistently investigates the fascinating intersections between disparate cultural artifacts, asking what a shell, a gemstone, a piece of plastic, a historical relic, and a fetish might possibly have in common. Within his oeuvre, these diverse elements merge seamlessly into singular, surprising, exuberant, and seductive pieces of jewelry. Kruger combines nearly every conceivable material and technique—ranging from precious gemstones to everyday found objects, and from traditional textile arts to refined metalwork—where the sublime meets the mundane, the precious meets the cheap, and the classical meets the kitsch. Designed to draw the eye toward the neck, chest, hand, or ear, Kruger’s creations function alternately as ornaments, talismans, personal statements, or irresistible objects intended to bring unadulterated joy. Doreen Timmers handles communications for Galerie Door.
Representing the vibrant contemporary scene in Adelaide, Australia, Zu design presents a striking ring by Angela Giuliani titled Parti Sapphire, priced at AUS$8,615.

Crafted from parti sapphires, nine-karat gold, and sterling silver, Giuliani’s ring features a top measuring 19 by 23 millimeters and stands 30 millimeters high from the base of the band. Explaining her overarching artistic philosophy, Giuliani notes that her work explores structure, form, and geometry through precious metals and gemstones, emphasizing clean lines, simple shapes, and the intrinsic balance of geometric design. For Giuliani, the making process is just as vital as the finished object, reflecting a commitment to thoughtful, well-made, and timeless jewelry designed for lasting connection. Jane Bowden oversees inquiries for the Australian gallery.
Moving to the Nordic region, Four Gallery in Umeå, Sweden, features the work of Karin Seufert, specifically Necklace 539, crafted in 2026 from PVC and thread with dimensions measuring 280 by 125 by 12 mm, available for 1,700 euros excluding VAT. Addressing the abstract and immaterial nature of time, Seufert’s latest body of work draws inspiration from the sky as a primary navigational and temporal tool. While the sun defines the rhythm of days, the moon marks longer phases, and the stars enable spatial orientation, Seufert’s pieces visually translate these celestial phenomena, rendering the sun as a flickering yellow circle, the moon in its shifting phases, and the stars in multifaceted, intricate forms. Karin Roy Andersson serves as the contact point for Four Gallery.
In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Gravers Lane Gallery highlights an 18-karat yellow gold and sterling silver necklace by Naomi Kurita, created in 2025 and priced at US$4,752.

This 15-inch necklace, designed to sit closely at the base of the neck, contrasts the distinct warmth of yellow gold against sterling silver with characteristic restraint, reflecting an aesthetic that has been exhibited widely in museums and galleries across the United States and Japan. Mia Chen coordinates inquiries for the Philadelphia gallery.

Yael Reisner acts as the primary contact for the London gallery.
In Brooklyn, New York, In the Gallery at Brooklyn Metal Works features Kerianne Quick’s 2026 brooch titled Well, It’s Not Up to Us, crafted from vegetable-tanned leather, Plexiglas, and a nickel alloy pin, measuring 3 1/2 by 8 1/2 by 1 1/4 inches and retailing at US$650. Quick’s academic research is deeply rooted in craft practice as an active form of cultural expression, emphasizing "material specificity"—a concept defined in their master’s thesis acknowledging materials as active participants in the generation of meaning. Through the Nevermind series, Quick explores Black-shrouded "mirrors" constructed from leather and Plexiglas that reference Victorian mourning traditions of covering domestic mirrors following a death. Rather than protecting a deceased spirit from its reflection, these obscured mirrors redirect the gaze back toward the living, effectively materializing complex emotional states including shame, culpability, despair, and helplessness. Brian Weissman handles inquiries for the Brooklyn venue.
Galeria Tereza Seabra in Lisbon, Portugal, presents Catarina Silva’s necklace Sugar Rush, created in 2026 using painted tin, leather, glass seed beads, glass flowers, embroidery, zinc, silver, and pearls, measuring 300 by 100 by 10 mm, available for 1,500 euros plus shipping. This piece forms part of Silva’s solo exhibition Jardin d’agrément, presented during the third Lisbon Jewellery Biennial program. The exhibition envisions a lush, utopian landscape inspired by cross-cultural paradigms of paradise and divine gardens where humans, animals, and plants coexist harmoniously beyond strict hierarchies. In this shared ecology, jewelry functions as a living constellation of symbolic motifs—including apples, unicorns, flowers, birds, and Marian imagery—evoking knowledge, fertility, care, and transformation, while the recurring figure of the snake is reimagined as a benevolent guardian of wisdom and regeneration. Tereza Seabra directs the Lisbon gallery.
Highlighting sustainable practices and creative reuse, Heidi Lowe Gallery in Lewes, Delaware, United States, presents Emily Cobb’s Floppy Flower, a 2026 work fabricated from gold-plated brass ear nuts, surgical steel ear nuts, assorted deadstock stud earrings, brass jump rings, and a silver-filled jump ring, measuring 30 by 8 by 1 1/2 inches and priced at US$1,480.

Describing the conceptual foundation of the piece, Vilhena notes that among all human dichotomies, the precarious dance between life and death remains the most prominent, explored here through the metaphorical lens of pirates who daily defy mortality and embrace it as an active partner. Paula Crespo serves as the contact for Galeria Reverso.
Finally, Thereza Pedrosa Gallery presents Infiltrazioni, a 2026 brooch by Gigi Mariani crafted from gold, niello, and silver, measuring 45 by 42 by 6 mm, priced at 3,170 euros.

The piece is also prominently featured in the artist’s newly published monograph. Thereza Pedrosa manages gallery inquiries.
