History
Peru is the second largest producer of silver in the world and has an outstanding historical tradition of silversmithing since pre Columbian cultures such as Vicus, Mochica and Chimu. Supported on this tradition, we decided to create a high quality handcrafted product guaranteed by our brand. ILARIA-PERU was created in 1992 with the aim to export. The first pieces were made specifically for exports. Our first important costumer in Italy was Faraone Boutique located in Milan. At the same time, Ilaria exported to Paris for Nina Ricci Cadeaux Boutique, and provided 3 stores in Geneva with our products: Eric Bertrand, Benoit de Gorsky and Eliane Sicard and finally, Montejo Boutique in Madrid. By the end of 1994, we started to sell ILARIA products in Lima, reason why we opened our first store in San Isidro. Our first product lines had such a great success between local and foreign customers that 15 years later, ILARIA has 31 stores in Peru, 2 in Chile and 5 franchises within Central and South America. |
