Giancarlo Miranda was born on February 7, 1975, in southern Peru. From a very young age, Giancarlo has enjoyed crafting candles, ceramics, soaps, and chocolates, and he has also painted. He recently re-directed his creative interests into jewelry design.
"Even as a child, I was always attracted to jewels and gems," confides Giancarlo. "I would spend hours looking at jewelry magazines. I studied graphic design, and in one way or the other, I have always been connected to art. Then last year, by chance I started to work with copper. I designed jewelry items featuring Murano and Swarovsky crystals. I realized I enjoyed doing this, so I studied all that I could to perfect my style and craft. I've adapted an area in my house as a workshop, where I spend my time working on my collections. I start by creating an overall design, and then I make the individual pieces.
"The problem is, the items I conceive are really like my own children. It is very hard for me to part with them! I would really love to hear from clients who might tell me their opinions and suggestions about my 'children’ "
Giancarlo signs his work with his last name, Miranda.
