Permanent Jewelry

Our permanent jewelry is a Pop Up Shop and Private Parties! We do the majority of our pop ups on Main Street in downtown Van Buren, AR. Book an appt through the link on this page or call (479)434-1998 to schedule. 

Since August 2022, we were Van Buren’s first & only permanent jewelry provider. Permanent jewelry is choice of fine chain that is painlessly welded, around your wrist, ankle, or neck, eliminating the need for a clasp & providing you with a comfortable, beautiful work of art permanently. High-quality chains in gold, rose gold, sterling silver and stainless steel are offered. Charms and connector add-ons are also available. 

Frequently Asked Questions?

• Can I shower in my permanent jewelry? You sure can! The chain is made from quality metal that is perfectly safe to shower in. 
• How about swimming? 
  You can swim in your jewelry! We do recommend a quick rinse with mild soap & water after swimming. It’s not recommended that your jewelry be exposed to hot tubs, sulphuric springs, or improperly balanced pools. 
  
• How do I clean my permanent jewelry?   We use quality metal, so while it needs little maintenance. You can shine it back up with a soft toothbrush and a small amount of dial dishwashing soap is all that is necessary to bring back your chain’s shine! Charms can also be cleaned this way. Silver polishing cloths can also be used. 
• Does it hurt when you weld the chain?
  Absolutely not. You won’t feel a thing. We use a specialty designed micro welder to weld the pieces onto you wrist, neck, ankle or finger. It makes a small pop sound with a quick zap of light. That is all!  
• How long do they last? 
  With proper care, they’ll last as long as you want to wear them. If you decide you no longer want to wear them, they can easily be removed at home. Please note that perma jewelry is still jewelry and should be handled like any other fine jewelry and is not indestructible. If your chain is pulled off & broken,  we are happy to re-weld it for you as long as it’s not stretched. 
• What if I need to remove my permanent jewelry for a surgery or medical procedure?   This will not be a problem. We weld the ends of the chain with a small jump ring. If you need to remove your jewelry it can easily be done using scissors, small pliers, or snips. Cut it at the connecting jump ring & once it’s off, save your chain! We can re-weld it back on for you whenever you’re ready.
