Our jewelry is handmade to order in Los Angeles. We do our best to keep all of our items in stock, but due to the custom nature of many of our designs it can take 2-3 weeks for your order to ship.

Arrival times depend on your chosen shipping method. If you need your jewelry by a specific date, please select the expedited shipping option and indicate any special instructions in the comments section when placing your order. Please note that expedited shipping only applies to shipping transit time once the jewelry is finished with production.

You can also email customerservice@mayabrenner.com to confirm that the item you wish to purchase is in stock. If you have ordered a piece that is delayed or unavailable, we will notify you via telephone or e-mail.

We recommend all orders be placed through our website.

Please contact us within 24 hours of placing your order if any changes need to be made.

We start working on your order shortly after it is placed so it’s really important to get in touch asap if you need to cancel it. Once your order is in production we are no longer able to cancel it.

This may occur if your card was declined and you attempted to make the purchase again. Rest assured, our company does not hold any charges from declined transactions. Depending on your bank, the transaction should be removed from your account once it has completed pending. Please reach out to your bank for any further information.

Our jewelry is assembled in Los Angeles, CA.

All of our jewelry is solid 14k gold. Some 14k gold metals may contain small amounts of nickel. 14k rose gold includes copper.

Yes! Our 14k gold jewelry is meant to be loved and lived in. It can be worn in the shower, pool, and while working out. As gold is a naturally soft material, chains can stretch over time or when tugged. Sterling silver pieces may tarnish with moisture exposure as well as with natural oxidation. We recommend using a silver cleaner or polishing cloth every so often to keep it looking brand new!

We also suggest removing your jewelry when there is a risk of it being pulled. This is particularly true with bracelets as they are more prone to getting caught on something.

Here’s how to make your special piece feel new again:

Gold and diamond jewelry can be cleaned using a combination of gentle dish soap and warm water.

Sterling silver naturally oxidizes over time, which may lead to slight discoloration of the metal. Restore shine by cleaning your jewelry with a polishing cloth or silver jewelry cleaner.

Our best selling length for our letter necklace is 16”. However, we recommend you measure your favorite necklace before ordering because all necks are different and the necklace may fit differently depending on the person. Please refer to our sizing guide for more guidance.

Yellow is our best selling gold option. However, we recommend you choose the gold that you like best.

Due to the delicate nature of the necklace and the way the letters are attached to the chain it is common that the letters will flip around while being worn.

It is common that the necklace will rotate around the neck while being worn. We recommend adjusting your necklace every so often to prevent the clasp lying in the front of the neck.

Since the letters and the clasp are so lightweight they move as the chain moves, and we can’t stop that from happening. Most necklaces can keep a pendant or charm in the front but you will notice that the actual chain also rotates around throughout the day. Some may do it more than others depending on how many letters are on your necklace and/or length of chain but it’s really a matter of it bothers you more than you love your necklace! :)

Yes! The 5th position in the center of the necklace is meant to anchor the chain and lays in a different direction than the other charms, per Maya’s design.

Yes! Please send an email to customerservice@mayabrenner.com if you want more than 5 letters on your necklace.

An adjustable chain will allow the option of wearing your necklace at different lengths. We offer 2 options for this. One is a removable extender and one is attached to the chain. Both options are the same exact chain as our necklace so that they blend well with the design.

Yes! You will just need to leave a comment specifying your desired metals for the charms in the order notes on the check out page.

No, it does not. Our expert jewelers keep the necklace’s length the same as when they receive it, unless otherwise requested by the customer.

The only way to remove an existing character from the chain is by replacing it with a new letter, charm or birthstone. Please send an email to customerservice@mayabrenner.com to receive further instructions for this service.

We’re happy to repair any jewelry purchased through our website. If it is deemed by our customer service that it is due to our manufacturing we will waive any fees for up to 3 months from receipt. After this time frame, depending on the type of repair necessary a fee may apply. All jewelry repairs must be approved by our customer service team before being sent back to us. You can get started on a repair here.

If you’ve purchased a necklace that is too short please check out our extenders here.

If you feel as though your chain is too long we can certainly help with length adjustments as well. Please submit a repair form here to get started on the process.

Yes. Due to the delicate nature of the links on our chain and the malleability of gold, it is common that with frequent wear the necklace will stretch over time. Please fill out a repair form if you would like to have it shortened.

Patience! But seriously, we have found that the best way to remove a knot from a chain is with a safety pin. Lay the chain on a flat surface and move the sharp point of the safety pin back and forth through the center of the knot. As it loosens you will be able to gently untangle the chain.

We do not recommend moving charms around on the delicate necklace. Not only does it compromise the strength of the chain but it can change the shape and damage the letter when it is cut off and re-attached.

We do however allow swaps of charms as a new charm would need to take the place of any charm being removed from the necklace. Please send an email to customerservice@mayabrenner.com to receive a quote for these services.

When sending your jewelry back to our studio for services please use the original jewelry packaging that your necklace was sent to you in. If you no longer have this we have also found that looping your necklace through a straw works just as well!

Please do not send your jewelry wrapped in cling wrap, taped to paper or card stock, or loosely tossed inside of an envelope without packaging. This may lead to damages to your jewelry that we are not responsible for. If you would like to receive a shipping kit to send your jewelry back to us in, please reach out to customerservice@mayabrenner.com to purchase one.
