Brazilian born artist, Miriam Chor Freitas, the inspiration behind Miriam Jewels, came to the United States at age 19 bringing with her two generations of family tradition in the jewelry trade. Despite her artistic ambitions, she pursued a meaningful career in Child Welfare services before starting to import a wide range of jewelry collections from around the world. Miriam developed her own wire crochet techniques and the Miriam Jewels Signature Wire Crochet Jewelry was the result. Miriam creates pieces of jewelry that are bold and lavish; yet elegant and unique wearable pieces of art that truly reflect both the artists’ sophisticated taste and the sensitivity of every woman. “Every piece of jewelry is designed to make a woman feel as beautiful on the outside as they are precious on the inside” according to Miriam.

She insists on providing her customers with the highest quality handmade jewelry products, in an environment focused on personal service and attention to detail that ensures the ultimate client satisfaction.
