How to care for your Mayana Designs accesories

A guide to keep your pieces beautiful over time

At Mayana, every accessory starts with intention. Our pieces are handmade using Japanese Miyuki glass beads, known worldwide for their precise cut and wide range of colors. This level of detail allows us to weave complex patterns with consistency, balance, and lightness qualities that define every Mayana design.

We focus mainly on earrings, exploring different styles and sizes so each piece can adapt to your everyday life or special moments. Over time, we’ve also expanded our collection to include bracelets and necklaces, created as the perfect complement to our earrings and designed to move effortlessly with you.

Because our accessories are handmade and thoughtfully constructed, proper care will help preserve their beauty and extend their life.

The materials behind our designs

Miyuki beads are loved for their uniform shape and durability, but what truly makes a Mayana piece special is how all the elements come together. We use high-quality threads, lightweight hardware, and carefully selected findings that won’t add unnecessary weight. Comfort is always a priority—our accessories are designed to feel easy to wear, versatile, and natural on the body. Every material is chosen not only for aesthetics, but also for functionality and long-term use.

How to clean your Miyuki accessories

Cleaning your Mayana pieces doesn’t require anything complicated. In fact, keeping it simple is best.

Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the brass metal surfaces after wearing them. This helps remove natural oils, makeup residue, or dust that can dull the metal over tome. We recommend these two products found on Amazon to help keep them looking brand new:

Chemicals, perfumes, and alcohol-based cleaners can affect both the beads and the thread over time. We recommend applying your face lotions, hair styling products and perfumes before putting on your Mayana earrings to avoid unwanted exposure to harsh chemicals and oils, Always make sure your accessories are completely dry before storing them.

How to store them at home

Proper storage makes a big difference. We recommend keeping your accessories in a soft pouch or jewelry box, ideally separated from other pieces to avoid friction or tangling. Store them in a dry place, away from direct sunlight or humidity, as prolonged exposure can dull the bead colors or weaken the thread.

If you’re traveling, lay them flat or place them in individual pouches to maintain their shape.

Designed to return, season after season

One of the things we value most at Mayana is versatility. Our designs are meant to come back into your wardrobe again and again, across different seasons and moments of your life. With the right care, your accessories will continue to complement your looks—whether styled casually or worn for special occasions.

Taking care of your Mayana pieces is also a way of honoring the craftsmanship, time, and intention behind each design. And whenever you’re ready, you’ll always find a Mayana piece waiting to meet you again.
