Permanent Jewelry FAQ's
What is permanent jewelry?
Discover this Hot Trend + Jewelry Revolution-Yet, it’s not “trendy”, it’s classic, timeless + classy!
The permanent jewelry we offer includes bracelets, necklaces, and anklets. The beautiful chain is expertly welded onto you for a clasp-free, secure fit. It may sound intimidating, but it’s painless. No clasp means they stay on as long as you desire. For removal, simply cut the jump ring that connects the chain and save it for future welding.
What is the process for getting permanent jewelry?
After selecting your desired chain style, material (14k gold-filled, sterling silver or gold plated with enamel), and charm or connector, we gently weld both ends, ensuring a seamless and comfortable fit.
Is permanent jewelry safe?
Yes, it’s completely safe. We prioritize safety and comfort, using protective measures like leather padding on your skin during the welding process.
Does it hurt to get permanent jewelry?
Not at all! We use a painless micro welder with an electrical current. A brief flash, and your jewelry is permanently secured. You won’t feel a thing!
What materials are the chains made of?
We use 14k gold-filled and sterling silver chains. They are great options for permanent jewelry because they’re hypoallergenic, resist tarnishing and offer durability. We also offer a more “seasonal”, slightly less expensive option that has color and is a quality gold plated chain.
How long does permanent jewelry last?
Permanent jewelry can last years or indefinitely with proper care. Some pieces may require occasional adjustments or replacement.
Can I get a clasp so that I can remove for sports?
Absolutely! If you prefer a removable option, we can add a clasp for your convenience.
What if I want or need to take off my permanent jewelry?
No problem. Carefully cut the chain at the connecting link with scissors, and you can save it for future welding. Just bring it in and we will weld it back for you (for a small fee), so it can be permanent again.
Can I go through TSA with it on?
Definitely! You can wear your permanent jewelry through airport security.
Will it tarnish or turn my skin green?
We are particular about the materials we work with for our permanent jewelry.
14k gold-filled chain is quite resistant to tarnishing which makes it a great option for permanent jewelry. There are a few rare circumstances where you will find gold-filled tarnishes such as your body’s pH and extended exposure to chemicals. Wash your jewelry with mild soap (blue Dawn works great!) and water to keep it clean and sparkly!
The more you wear sterling silver, the better it looks. The natural friction and oil from your body will help keep your silver nice and shiny. If for any reason it starts looking dull, you can rub a polishing cloth over it to shine it again!

Caring for your Permanent Jewelry
How do I care for my permanent jewelry?
Because the jewelry is made from high-quality materials like 14k gold-filled and sterling silver, it’s designed to withstand everyday wear. However, keeping it clean and dry will help prolong its shine and luster. A little blue Dawn dish soap and a soft toothbrush will give your jewelry a great cleaning.
Can I swim or workout in my permanent jewelry?
Absolutely! It’s made for your daily life, even in the pool, lake or gym.

What is your reweld policy?
The minimalist appearance and ease of wearing permanent jewelry makes it the perfect choice for everyday wear. Despite the fact that you do not take it on and off each day, they are still delicate pieces of jewelry that can break.
While durable, permanent jewelry can occasionally require repair. Should your bracelet, anklet or necklace:
- Get caught on something
- Break
- Stretch
We offer a $10 fee for adjustments and repairs.
Visit us at a pop-up or book an appointment for a Permanent Jewelry Adjustment! If we are unable to repair the chain or you want to different style chain we will offer you a discount to replace the chain.
