PERMANENT JEWELRY INFO & FAQ

WHAT IS PERMANENT JEWELRY?

Permanent Jewelry is a chain that doesn’t have a typical clasp for fastening and removing the

jewelry. Instead, we use a micro-welding system to safely weld the links closed, creating an

unbroken chain that is intended to never be removed. Depending on the chain design and your

lifestyle, your jewelry can last a lifetime. For safety reasons, your jewelry is not unbreakable,

therefore, with excessive wear and tear, your jewelry can be prone to breakage.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Our in-house jeweler will custom fit a chain of your choosing with any charms or accents to fit

comfortably on your wrist, ankle or neck. The process is painless, quick and easy. Using a microwelding

pen, a quick zap or two will permanently close the chain link with no special care

requirements.

IS IT SAFE? DOES IT HURT?

The process is completely safe and painless. The welding system will only work while in contact

with metal and has built-in safety measures to ensure no risk to anyone involved. There is a

small snap and a flash of light, and we do provide darkened glasses to protect your eyes if you

would like to watch the process.

HOW DO YOU CARE FOR PERMANENT JEWELRY?

Permanent Jewelry is waterproof and can be worn 24/7. Sterling Silver and sometimes gold can

change colors in hot tubs or treated pools, so we do recommend avoiding those, and always

rinse your jewelry off after swimming in lakes or oceans. Gold fill will wear through its gold

coating over time, and Sterling Silver will tarnish, but silver can be easily polished using an

appropriate polishing cloth. Your permanent jewelry can also be worn through airport security,

as TSA does not require you to remove jewelry and it is non-magnetic.

CAN IT BE REMOVED?

If you need to remove your jewelry for any reason, it can be snipped with scissors or wire

cutters. We can re-weld your jewelry if you want it back on for a small fee.

What metals and materials are offered?

We carry only the highest quality 14k Solid Gold, Gold-Fill, and Sterling Silver chains and

charms. We offer ethically sourced natural stones as well as synthetic ones and can source and

special order almost anything.

Solid 14k Gold – This is the best option for your jewelry, as it is made to last for your whole life

or longer. It is resistant to tarnishing, it is waterproof, nickel-free and hypo allergenic. We can

also custom order specific chains or higher karat golds for you.

Gold Fill – A more economical choice to solid gold, but still beautiful, gold fill is a good choice. It

is a base metal (usually yellow brass) that has 14k gold clad to the outside. It is far more durable

than gold plating and will last for years before the gold wears down. It is waterproof, tarnish

resistant, nickel free and hypo allergenic.

Sterling Silver – Sterling is a beautiful metal that is affordable and durable. It will tarnish over

time but can be polished back to shiny using a polishing cloth. It is waterproof, nickel free and

hypo allergenic.

WHAT ABOUT REPAIRS AND ADJUSTMENTS?

Though rare, if your jewelry breaks or is too loose within 48 hours of purchase, bring it back for

a re-weld at no charge. Re-attachment after that time will be charged a small fee. If you need it

adjusted larger, some chains can have additional links added while for others, a new piece may

need to be purchased at full price if outsized adjustments need to be made.

All other repairs and adjustments are at the discretion of the jeweler and additional service fees

may be charged.
