What is Permanent Jewelry?
Permanent Jewelry is clasp less, custom fitted jewelry.
While most jewelry is worn daily, permanent jewelry is not taken off.
We offer permanent jewelry in 4 forms - as a bracelet, anklet, necklace, or as a ring.
To secure the jewelry, the piece is welded together while worn by the client.
The process takes about 10-15 minutes, with the majority of the time being the selection of the chain! Even though there is a weld involved, it is perfectly safe, painless, and takes seconds.
