I had the chance to visit with Myranda, who is somehow even more beautiful inside than she is out, to talk about her incredible passion and growing brand. Though we’d met a few times before, her cover photoshoot was our first real chance to visit — and it couldn’t have been more memorable. When the blouse she’d brought for the shoot wasn’t quite working, she looked at me with that big smile and said, “Yours is great—can I wear it?!” Minutes later, we were swapping tops like lifelong friends. It was a literal shirt-off-my-back moment for someone I was just getting to know, but I knew right then she’d do the same in a heartbeat. That’s who Myranda is — fun, fierce, kind, and the kind of woman who brings out the best in everyone she meets.
Here’s what she shared about her journey, her holiday favorites, and the magic behind Myranda Fine Jewelry.
Let’s start with the sparkle. What first drew you to the world of fine jewelry?
My world was very hard growing up, so jewelry became a beautiful escape. I was fortunate to grow up surrounded by diversity; it gave me drive and hunger to succeed. I fell deeply in love with the beauty of jewelry design and making, and it became my passion and purpose.
From estate jewelry to custom design to diamond brokering, your expertise spans so much. How did your career evolve, and what inspired you to start your own brand?
I actually started my own brand over 15 years ago, but for a long time I was scared to take the full leap and go all in. It all began from my home, where I’d have 30 to 45 cars a day pulling up for appointments. My sister Monica, and my right-hand girl Hayden gave me the extra push to go all in. In January 2024, we moved into a small 200-square-foot office, and that’s where we built the new Myranda Fine Jewelry Studio—one dollar and tons of hard work at a time. When we opened, we expected around 80 to 100 people and instead had lines wrapped around the building. Since then, we’ve exploded. It has been the true American dream!
Your clients come from all over the world, but you’re proudly based here in Arizona. What’s special about that?
Arizona is our mothership. As a native, I’m so proud to have our headquarters here. Arizona is booming with growth, low taxes, and a community full of transplants. It’s one of the top five relocation states, and we love celebrating life’s moments here, from birthdays to engagements to heirloom redesigns.
Every jewelry designer has that one unforgettable piece. What’s your favorite?
I adore our Candy Gemstone Collection. It’s full of bright and pastel sapphires hand-selected from Sri Lanka, and they’re absolutely breathtaking. I’m also proud of our Chunky Monkey Collection, where we take old diamonds and create stunning collage-style pieces. It’s one of our most sought-after collections.
Tell us about a client story that’s stuck with you.
There are so many, but one that still moves me is about a young man who lost both his mother and grandmother, the women who raised him. He brought us their rings, and we combined them into a single heirloom engagement ring. He cried, we all cried, it was pure love in a piece of jewelry. He’s still a client today, even from out of state.
The holidays are all about sparkle. What are your favorite gift ideas or trends this season?
I’m always thrilled for the holidays! My go-to gifts are timeless tennis bracelets and classic diamond studs, starting at just $450. Another favorite trend this season is our custom diamond nameplate necklaces. They’ve made us famous worldwide, and we can even match your very own handwriting or personal font.
You’ve built such a loyal following. What keeps people coming back?
Honestly, I still tear up thinking about it. I thank God and the universe every day for our incredible clients. They come back because we truly care. My team is one of the most passionate and genuine groups in the business. We’ve also made fine jewelry more accessible by offering affordable luxury through in-house design, transparent pricing, and exceptional quality. It’s a simple, joyful experience from start to finish.
Finally, how do you celebrate your own milestones?
I celebrate with my team. It’s our success, not just mine. And the more successful we become, the more we give back. You get what you give in life, and I truly believe we need to be the change we want to see.
You can join Myranda and her team at their Chandler, Arizona showroom for the Holiday Open House on December 5–6 from noon to 5 p.m., featuring raffles, champagne, and a special appearance by celebrity guest @thediamondsgirl.
We’ve helped people celebrate love, survive heartbreak, and find new beginnings through a single, meaningful piece of jewelry. Every gem tells a story — a little piece of someone’s heart they get to wear forever.
