Rene Escobar is a proud third-generation jeweler. His company Rene Escobar Jewelry is based in Miami, Florida, and is committed to authenticity, originality, and the endurance to the beautiful art of handmade jewelry. Rene's jewelry is a beautiful combination of craftsmanship and stunning materials - true works of art!
Rene's love affair with the world of jewelry began at an early age. The fascination of watching his father, a master craftsman, create intricately beautiful pieces quickly developed into a passion. In the early '80's amidst the uncertain social climate of his native Nicaragua, Rene was sent to South Florida to attend college in order to pursue an education unavailable to him in his home country. His innate attraction to the art of jewelry making compelled him to seek out a career as a goldsmith.
Jewelry making is in Rene Escobar's blood, and his passion is personal. He got his first position as a jeweler when he was 17. For the next few years, he had the good fortune of working alongside the most skillful jewelers in South Florida to refine his craft. In the early '90's, he formed Rene Escobar Inc., a studio, where for nearly twenty years, he created one-of-a-kind pieces for some of the finest collectors throughout the Southeast.
As a private jeweler, Rene has always drawn inspiration from keenly observing his clientele. In 2008 motivated by these clients, he created a collection of 18K gold, diamonds and colorful gemstone earrings that he exhibited for the first time at The Jewelers of America Summer Show in New York City. The collection was a success and since then his collections have been attracting art galleries and select jewelry stores. Rene's collections are always evolving, always handmade in his South Florida Studio using recycled precious metals, set with responsibly-sourced gemstones, employing traditional and cutting edge jewelry-making techniques. He and his life partner hand-create each of Rene's jewelry collections. Rene's clientele embraces Rene's belief that each individual piece of jewelry is in its own essence a work of art.
