Art Jewelry Forum’s bi-monthly On Offer series ran Part 2 as a curated listing of new studio pieces from its international member galleries, presenting distinct works across materials and scale. The entry lists Alicia Jane Boswell’s AJB6 earrings, dated 2025, at US$2,000; Kelly Jean Conroy’s statement necklace at US$2,995; and Helena Sandström’s brooch Time Is Running Out, 2024, in layered mixed media. The piece is recorded as published 2026-02-16 while the article header reads January 2026, Part 2.

Alicia Jane Boswell’s AJB6 earrings are described in full: vitreous enamel on steel, 18-karat gold, and sterling silver, measuring 3 x 1 inches (76 x 25 mm). The listing names Heidi Lowe Gallery in Lewes, DE, US, with Heidi Lowe as contact, and credits the photograph to the artist. Boswell’s accompanying artist statement is printed intact: "Alicia Jane Boswell’s work blends the traditional crafts of silversmithing, goldsmithing, enameling, engraving, and lacemaking with contemporary digital techniques like 3D rendering and laser cutting to create innovative, wearable jewelry." The copy continues, "Through this fusion of methods, she explores the intersection of craftsmanship, technology, and personal expression—where the tactile meets the digital."

Kelly Jean Conroy’s necklace is presented as an etched mother-of-pearl statement piece, each element etched by hand and prong set in oxidized sterling silver. The listing locates the work at Pistachios Contemporary Art Jewelry in Chicago, IL, US, and lists The Pistachios Team as the contact. The descriptive lines read, "Etched mother-of-pearl comes to life with this statement necklace by Kelly Jean Conroy. Each unique element is etched by hand and then prong set in oxidized sterling silver. A playful piece that is perfect to wear to a picnic!" The item is offered at US$2,995; no photo credit is provided in the excerpt.

Helena Sandström’s Brooch, Time Is Running Out, 2024, is shown as a larger, sculptural work in silver, zinc, textile, wood, and steel, with dimensions 6 ¼ x 3 ⅛ x ⅜ inches (160 x 80 x 10 mm). The photograph is credited to Sofia Björkman. The supplied listing does not name a presenting gallery, contact, or a retail price for Sandström’s brooch.

The On Offer copy preserves AJF’s invitation: "With the start of a new year, why not indulge in a treat? It feels good to get a terrific piece of art jewelry for yourself while celebrating and supporting artists and the galleries who show them!" The presentation also notes interactive link cues for gallery pages and gallerist emails in the original online layout and repeats the practical instruction, "(Please contact the gallery directly for inquiries.)" Part 2 underscores AJF’s focus on material specificity and maker technique across necklaces, earrings, and brooches in its international gallery network.
