Good to know
How is permanent jewelry put on?
The chain is sized to your wrist, ankle or neck and the ends are joined with a small jump ring that is welded shut with a micro welder. There is no clasp, and a leather patch protects the skin during the weld.
Can permanent jewelry be removed?
Yes — it can be cut at the jump ring with scissors or pliers, for example before an MRI or surgery. Many studios will reweld the same chain later for a small fee.
