FAQ
Find answers to common questions about AURAYA jewelry, materials, shipping, returns, gifting, and jewelry care.
JEWELRY AND MATERIALS
What is AURAYA jewelry made of?
Many AURAYA pieces are made with materials such as 18K gold vermeil and AG925 sterling silver. Please check each product description for specific material details before ordering.
What is 18K gold vermeil?
Gold vermeil is a layer of gold over sterling silver. It is more elevated than standard gold plating because the base metal is sterling silver rather than brass or alloy.
Is gold vermeil real gold?
Gold vermeil uses real gold layered over sterling silver. It is not solid gold, but it offers a fine-jewelry feel at a more accessible price.
Is AURAYA jewelry hypoallergenic?
Many AURAYA pieces are designed with sensitive-skin comfort in mind. Please check each product description for exact material details, especially if you have a known allergy.
Is AURAYA jewelry nickel-free?
Many AURAYA pieces are designed to be nickel-free. Please check the product description for the most accurate information about each piece.
Will gold vermeil tarnish?
Gold vermeil can naturally fade or tarnish over time depending on wear, skin chemistry, moisture, and care. To help your jewelry last longer, keep it dry and store it properly when not in use.
