Jewelry Care

Maya Jewelry officially closed on December 31, 2025. We are no longer accepting new orders, returns, or repairs.

Maya Jewelry designs are created with intention and integrity and are constructed to withstand the test of time. The information below will help you form a long-term relationship with your Maya treasures, just as we intended. We are a corporate sponsor of the Association of Professional Piercers, and our manufacturing practices are compliant with their jewelry standards in addition to other global regulations.

Taking proper care of your plated and solid metal jewelry is important to ensure your designs last as long as possible. While wearing your jewelry, we recommend avoiding water, skincare products, and cosmetics. Store your jewelry out of direct sun and away from damp environments. Water—especially chlorinated or saltwater—can erode and oxidize plating. Everyday products like hair products, cosmetics, lotions, household cleaners, and similar items may contain chemicals that can permanently damage jewelry. Sweat and body pH can also wear down plating, so remove non-solid gold jewelry before working out or sleeping.
