Frequently Asked Questions


What is permanent jewelry?

Permanent jewelry refers to pieces that are designed to be worn continuously without removal. Unlike traditional jewelry, these pieces are custom-fitted and welded or soldered directly onto your body, usually around the wrist, ankle, or neck. This creates a seamless look with no clasp, symbolizing an unbroken bond.

What are the benefits of permanent jewelry?

  • Symbolic Meaning: Often chosen to symbolize enduring relationships or milestones.

  • Low Maintenance: No need to worry about losing clasps or regularly removing and reattaching.

  • Seamless Aesthetic: A sleek and continuous design that’s free of clasps or breaks.

How is permanent jewelry applied?

At your appointment, you will get to see all of the chain selections and choose your chain and where you would like it placed. A trained professional welder will help size the chain around your chosen body part to ensure a perfect fit. The jewelry is then cut to size and the ends are welded together using a small, precise torch. This process is quick, typically taking only a few minutes, and is generally painless. The welding tool does have a needle on the end but it only reacts to metal surfaces.

What kind of materials do you use?

Mosse uses gold-filled and sterling silver chains. Our chains are hypoallergenic and suitable for long-term wear.

How Do I care for permanent jewelry?

Caring for permanent jewelry is simple:

  • Regular Cleaning: Clean with mild soap and water, or use a jewelry-specific cleaner.

  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Keep your jewelry away from chlorine, bleach, and other harsh chemicals to prevent tarnishing or damage.

  • Check for Tightness: Periodically check the fit to ensure it remains comfortable and secure.

What happens if I don’t want it on?

While designed for long-term wear, permanent jewelry can be removed if necessary. A professional jeweler can carefully cut the piece at the weld point without damaging the jewelry or causing discomfort. This allows for the piece to be potentially re-welded later if desired.

Can I travel with permanent jewelry?
