José Ignacio Miró was an antiquarian specializing in manuscripts, an appraiser and a great lover of jewelry (Cabello, 2019). In 1870 he published Estudio de las piedras preciosas, su historia y caracteres en bruto y carbradas: con la descripción de las joyas más notables de la corona de España del Monasterio del Escorial. Miró sold his archaeological collection to the National Archaeological Museum of Madrid in 1872.
