What is permanent jewelry?
Also referred to as forever jewelry, endless chain, zapped jewelry, or welded bracelets,
permanent jewelry is a unique way to honor any commitment you might be making whether to a loved one or yourself.
How does it work?
We offer a limited variety of solid 14k gold, 14k gold-filled and sterling silver chains for you to choose from.
If you want to personalize your bracelet, choose from our selection of charms which can easily be added.
Once we customize the chain length to fit your wrist or ankle,
we then connect the two ends with a tiny jump ring and weld it closed.
Because it is welded, this means there is no clasp.
However, if at any point you decide you no longer wish to wear the bracelet, it can be easily clipped off.
How long does it take?
We can service 1-3 people in a 30-minute time period; 4-6 people in an hour.
If you have more than 6 people please book 2 appointments back to back.
What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule my appointment?
No problem! You can cancel or reschedule by clicking the link in your confirmation email.
What if I am exposed to COVID-19?
If you test positive for COVID-19 please reschedule your appointment.
What metals do you offer?
Our chains and add-ons are available in 14k solid yellow, rose, and white gold or 14k gold-filled options.
What happens if my bracelet breaks or stretches?
If your bracelet breaks or stretches we can repair it for a $15 fee. If it is broken or stretched beyond repair,
you will need to purchase a new bracelet.
If you have a permanent bracelet or anklet from a different store that needs repair, we may be able fix it for you.
Email info@winifredgrace.com with a photo and we will let you know if it's possible.
What if I have to remove my bracelet?
If at any point you have to remove your jewelry for any reason (MRI, surgery, sports), it can be clipped off with scissors or clippers.
Don't worry, we can always weld it back on for a $15 re-welding fee.
Is it dangerous?
Nope!
We use a high-quality arc welding machine and an experienced welder to perform the service.
Unlike soldering, there is no flame, just a tiny spark.
Is there an age requirement?
This procedure is safe for anyone 10 and older.
Where is the service performed?
Love Linked takes place at our brick & mortar boutique,
Winifred Grace 5632 N. Clark Street in Chicago, in the heart of Andersonville.
