Our Story

A burglary took nearly every piece of jewelry we owned. Some of those pieces could never be replaced, not because of what they cost, but because of what they meant.

What followed was a desire to create something new. Pieces made by hand, designed to be lived in.

That was the beginning of Maya David.

Made by hand. Made to be lived in.

Where It Begins

Every piece starts with a stone worth keeping. The colors, textures, and places we’ve traveled find their way into every design we make.

Born from Loss

A burglary took nearly every piece of jewelry we owned. So we decided to create something different. Pieces made with intention, meant to carry meaning.

Made in Los Angeles

Nearly everything you see is made in our Los Angeles studio. Stone by stone, clasp by clasp. Small-batch. No shortcuts.

From our Founder

I’m David Lim, co-founder of Maya David. You might know me from the TV series S.W.A.T., but this is the work I’m most proud of.

My wife Marketa and I built this brand from scratch, in our Los Angeles studio, after a burglary took nearly every piece of jewelry we owned. What we lost couldn’t be replaced. So we made something new.

We design what we want to wear. Pieces that feel effortless, personal, and built to last. If it doesn’t work on us, it doesn’t leave the studio.

Thank you for being part of it.

Warmly,
David Lim
