What Is Permanent Jewellery?

February 06, 2023

The term ‘permanent’ tends to evoke two types of reactions. There are those who have an aversion to the concept and prefer change, and there are others who find the utmost joy in the promise of forever. For those in the latter group, permanent jewellery might be a perfect option.

Permanent jewellery is exactly what it sounds like–it is jewellery that cannot be removed because it is sized perfectly, welded together, and cannot be taken off unless it is cut or broken. Here at Holloway Diamonds, we strive to help you find the perfect piece of jewellery–whether that be custom jewellery pendants, reworked jewellery, or permanent jewellery.

Typically bracelets and necklaces have clasps that allow the wearer to either adjust the length or remove it altogether. On the other hand, permanent jewellery stays where it is unless it is permanently removed. 

If you have been following the trend on social media, you have most likely seen a multitude of styles and designs of permanent jewellery. While there are many options to choose from, the most sought-after type of permanent jewellery is dainty bracelets made with fourteen- or eighteen-carat gold. 

An important point to keep in mind is that quality matters–because permanent jewellery cannot be taken off when showering or going for a swim, its chain will need to be of higher quality to be more durable against tarnishing. However, the higher the quality of the chain, the more prone it is to breaking. After all, fine gold is delicate.

Why Should You Opt for Permanent Jewellery?

Properly Sized

Have you ever bought a bracelet or necklace only to have it not fit perfectly? It looked perfect in the store, but when you get home, it’s either too tight or too loose and either falls off or digs into your skin.

Permanent jewellery is sized to fit you perfectly so you don’t have to deal with those inconveniences. There are no clasps to worry about and no accompanying fear that it will accidentally slide off your hand while you walk. 

Minimal Maintenance

You want to wear jewellery, but you find it annoying to take it on and off at night or before a shower. If this sounds like you, permanent jewellery might be the answer.

There is no need to take it on and off because permanent jewellery is sturdy, durable, and equally stylish. What more could you ask for? 

A Wholesome Gift That Lasts Forever

There is so much joy to be found in gifting someone a piece of jewellery and watching them open up the box. But let’s paint an equally–if not more–exciting picture. You take someone to a jewellery store and have them pick out their favourite chain. The process of creating a piece of permanent jewellery is explained to them, and you see the excitement in their eyes. You can watch as the ends of their chosen chain are welded together–you know they have a token of your love and affection permanently placed right on their wrist!
