Permanent jewelry refers to a unique type of jewelry that is designed to be worn continuously without the need for a traditional clasp. This style typically includes bracelets, necklaces, or anklets that are custom-fitted and welded together, making them an integral part of the wearer's look.
The process involves using a specialized tool that creates a secure bond between the ends of the jewelry piece. The absence of clasps not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also eliminates the hassle of taking the jewelry on and off.

No! You won't feel anything during the welding process. It consists of a micro pinpoint welder that welds the metals together in a split second. There will be a tiny spark, but no discomfort at all.

To remove permanent jewelry, you will need a few basic tools and some careful handling. Follow these steps:
Identify the Closure Type: Most permanent jewelry features a welded closure referred to as a jump ring.
Gather Tools: If your jewelry is welded, you will require a pair of wire cutters or scissors designed for cutting metal. Ensure they are sharp for a clean cut.
Prepare the Area: Work in a clean, well-lit space to avoid losing any small pieces. You may want to use a soft cloth or mat to protect the jewelry and your work surface.
Carefully Cut the Chain: Locate the area where you want to cut the chain at the jump ring. Using the wire cutters, gently squeeze to cut through the metal. Apply consistent pressure, and be sure not to pinch or pull the chain too hard.
Avoid Damage: If the jewelry has delicate stones or designs, be cautious around those areas. It’s best to cut near the closure to minimize damage.
Remove any Unwanted Residue: After cutting, ensure all pieces are free of any metal residue that might remain on your skin or clothing.
Consider Professional Assistance: If you're uncomfortable doing it yourself or if the jewelry is particularly valuable or sentimental, consider taking it back to the professional jeweler for removal.
Always remember that while permanent jewelry is designed to be durable, it can be safely removed with the right tools and care.
