Permanent jewelry sounds a little intimidating at first. A bracelet welded on, just like that? But here's the thing: it's one of the easiest jewelry experiences you'll ever have, and most people leave wondering why they waited. Here's everything you need to know before you book your appointment at our Montreal studio.
What is permanent jewelry?
Permanent jewelry is a bracelet, anklet, or necklace that's welded directly onto your body. No clasp, no closure. A tiny pulse welder fuses the ends of the chain together, custom-fit to your wrist, ankle, or neck. The piece stays on until you decide to take it off, which takes seconds with a small pair of scissors. No damage, no drama.
Why choose permanent jewelry?
Permanent jewelry isn't just a bracelet without a clasp. It's something you choose to wear every day. Not in a drawer, not saved for special occasions. Right there, on you, all the time.
For a lot of people, it carries meaning. You get it done with a close friend and leave wearing something you both carry separately. With your mom or your daughter, as a way of making a bond that already existed into something you can see. With your partner, to mark a moment without the weight of a ring.
It's not a tattoo. It's not a promise you can't walk back. It's just a piece of jewelry that stays, quietly, as a small reminder of what matters to you.
Many people also get it for themselves. To mark a new chapter, a personal anniversary, or simply because they wanted something real and lasting to wear every single day.
That's what permanent jewelry is: a simple moment, a clear intention, and something tangible to keep.

What materials are available?
- 14k solid gold: the premium option. Entirely 14-karat gold, hypoallergenic, and built to last a lifetime. Best for sensitive skin and anyone who wants the real thing.
- Gold filled: a layer of 14k gold mechanically bonded to a brass core. Significantly more durable than plating. Water-resistant and sweat-proof for everyday wear.
- Sterling silver: for those who prefer silver. Bright, clean look, hypoallergenic, and works with everything.
How to care for your permanent jewelry
- Waterproof: shower, swim, work out: no problem, depending on the material you choose.
- Low-maintenance: a soft cloth is all you need to keep it looking good.
- Tarnish-resistant: 14k solid gold and gold filled hold their color over time. Sterling silver may need light polishing occasionally.
Who is permanent jewelry for?
Anyone who wants a piece of jewelry that actually stays. It's a popular experience for best friends, mothers and daughters, couples, and solo customers who want something meaningful to wear daily. Groups are welcome too: bachelorettes, birthdays, and team events all work great.
