Bio

"I was born in Lima in 1969," says jeweler Marianela Vargas Balarezo. "I learned my art through private classes and workshops but, from the time I was a child, I loved jewelry. I always felt a special need to make my own.

 

"I went through a period when my health was a problem and, while I recovered, I looked for something to pass the time. It seemed like a good idea to do something I liked while learning something new. One day when I was out for a walk, I noticed a place that offered classes in jewelry making. I never even thought about it. I signed up and I was hooked. That was in 2003 and today I am still creating new designs filled with life.

 

"I'd describe my work as expressive. I enjoy extroverted designs. It's a wonderful form of self expression and time just flies when I'm working. I like to use a variety of silver crafting techniques that show how beautiful it is.

 

"I love creating, combining and producing beautiful things. I couldn't stop now if I tried. My health was my greatest challenge but it led me into this world of art.

 

"I hope you appreciate my art and the dedication that goes into each piece. I hope our Peruvian art is noticed in every corner of the world."

 

Marianela's jewelry has been recognized in Peru o a number of occasions as well as In the International Jewelry Show in Hong Kong.

    Loved the look of these beautiful hoops so much that I also got the Gold vermeil as well. They're so well crafted and not heavy at all nor do they feel like they're weightless, thus not durable.

    I ordered another pair of the "Nascent Flower" earrings because they are just what I wanted.I am a senior citizen. "Nascent Flower" earrings do not weigh down my ear lobes and are attractive yet subtle.I might order another pair of earrings just in case one earring gets lost.

    Lovely simple but stylish earrings - lost my first pair - lost one of the replacement - third time lucky, I hope. So glad I can still replace them. Love them.
