Frequently Asked Questions
Permanent Jewelry is a unique way to wear your fine jewelry without a clasp. These chains (most often bracelets) are custom-fitted and micro-welded for a seamless look, and you can add gemstone or diamond charms.
Many people get permanent jewelry as a way to pay tribute to meaningful milestones in their life or the special bonds they share with loved ones. Think of it a the modern day friendship bracelet. Since it's made of solid gold, the pieces require no maintenance and will never tarnish.
It's your new forever bracelet that you will never lose!
Though these pieces are made to last forever, they can be removed with a pair of household scissors or wire-cutters, and we can re-weld them here at our store for a $10 fee.

We choose delicate chains for their minimalist appearance and ease for everyday wear. Though they are considered permanent in that you cannot take them off, they are still delicate pieces of jewelry that can break with wear. Should your bracelet get caught on something and break or stretch we will do our best to repair it for you for a $10-$15 fee. Please note, Anna Janelle Jewelry is not liable for lost chains. Put it in a safe place and book a Permanent Jewelry Adjustment Appointment or visit us during our walk-in hours! If we are unable to repair the chain we will offer you a discount to replace the chain.

Consult your doctor if you will be required to remove your permanent jewelry during your X-ray or MRI appointment.All ferrous metals (ie stainless steel) must be removed prior to entering the MRI exam room. If you are aren’t sure if your jewelry contains ferrous metals, you can use a magnet at home and test in on your own. If the magnet tries to “grab” the jewelry then it can not enter an MRI exam room. Gold is non-ferrous, however; depending on how large the jewelry is and how close it is to the part of you're body being scanned, your doctor may or may not ask you to remove it. If they do, make sure to cut if at the ring, store it safely, and bring it back to us for a re-weld!
