About Forever Linked Jewelry
What is Endless Linked Jewelry?
It is a piece of jewelry where two ends of a chain are joined by a ring. This ring closed to create a seamless, weld free, clasp free design, which can be worn continuously. It has become so popular for these reasons.
Metal Types
Stainless steel (a customer favorite) is a strong hypoallergenic metal, which is resistant to tarnish and easy to care for. Stainless steel is naturally silver in color, the gold stainless steel is ion plated, which is done through a heating process which holds up longer than normal plated items. With proper care it can last up to 6months or longer. I have had mine on for over a year and still looks new.
Is it like permanent?
Yes it is essentially the same, the difference is the metal I use and that I do not need to weld the ring shut. I find the name "permanent" to be confusing to some who are new to permanent jewelry or are not explained how it works properly. Permanent jewelry can break or come undone if tugged on to hard. Chain is not indestructible and can break. However, for safety reasons permanent jewelry (and my Endless Linked Jewelry) should have a breaking point so that if caught on something it should either cause ring to open or chain to break with enough force. With normal wear and tear it will stay on.
Never heard of Non-Welded
My first few events there were moms who had their young daughters with, who so badly wanted permanent jewelry, however, the moms did not feel comfortable with their child having something welded on them or wanting to pay the higher cost of the precious metals. I completely understood their concerns. So since I had been working with stainless steel for years and knowing it was stronger and would not necessarily need to be welded I decided to test it out on myself and some family and friends. It worked and held up with normal wear (We've had ours on for over 3 years now). I finally started offering it at events and so many moms were so happy and to see the smiles on the little girls faces when they got one mad hit all worth it. Little did I know it would become my top seller and become something to do for girls birthday parties.
Also, my desire to provide something more affordable for my customers had me loving the stainless steel choice even more. Customers loved all the options and the ability to get more than just one bracelet at a time. One of the best features is the durability and longevity of stainless steel is a customer favorite. It does not tarnish and is low maintenance if needing to clean, just use some dish soap and water and pat dry with a towel.
Do you offer welded version "permanent jewelry"?
Yes I do offer welded version. I usually don't have it at events, because my Endless Linked Style is the top choice. So I save my welded permanent jewelry for booked parties (at my place or yours or at an event place), or one on one sessions at my home, and at open houses I do.
Age Restrictions
I will not weld on anyone under the age of 18. I, also, strongly suggest that anyone under the age of 5 to have a clasp added to their Forever Linked Jewelry.
