What Is Permanent Jewelry? Everything You Need to Know
Permanent jewelry has become one of the most popular jewelry trends in recent years—and for good reason.
Unlike traditional jewelry that uses a clasp, permanent jewelry is custom fitted to your wrist, ankle, or neck and professionally welded together, creating a seamless piece that's designed to be worn every day.
Whether you're celebrating a friendship, anniversary, graduation, birthday, or simply treating yourself, permanent jewelry transforms a beautiful accessory into a meaningful experience.
At Fern the Label, we believe permanent jewelry is more than jewelry—it's a lasting reminder of life's special moments.
How Does Permanent Jewelry Work?
The process is simple, safe, and takes only a few minutes.
When you visit Fern the Label, you'll first choose your favorite chain from our carefully curated collection.
Next, one of our trained team members will custom measure the chain to ensure the perfect fit.
Once you're happy with the sizing, we use a specialized micro-welder to create a tiny weld that permanently connects the chain without the need for a clasp.
The result is a beautiful, seamless piece made specifically for you.
Does Permanent Jewelry Hurt?
Not at all.
The welding process never touches your skin.
A small welding spark joins the two ends of the chain together while your skin is protected throughout the process.
Most guests are surprised by how quick, comfortable, and easy the experience is.
How Long Does Permanent Jewelry Last?
Permanent jewelry is designed to be worn every day.
With proper care, your jewelry can last for years.
Like any fine jewelry, its longevity depends on daily wear, lifestyle, and how well it's cared for.
If your chain ever comes off due to an eligible craftsmanship issue, Fern the Label proudly offers a One-Year Craftsmanship Warranty, including complimentary rewelds for qualifying pieces.
Can You Shower or Swim with Permanent Jewelry?
Yes.
Many of our chains are selected with everyday wear in mind, allowing you to comfortably wear your jewelry throughout your daily routine.
To help preserve your jewelry's beauty over time, we recommend following our Jewelry Care Guide and avoiding unnecessary exposure to harsh chemicals whenever possible.
Can Permanent Jewelry Be Removed?
Yes.
Although it's designed for long-term wear, permanent jewelry can easily be removed if needed by carefully cutting the small welded jump ring with jewelry cutters.
Many clients choose to remove and later reweld their jewelry for medical procedures or personal preference.
