Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about permanent jewelry at Summie.
Why choose permanent jewelry?
Permanent jewelry is more than just a fashion statement—it's a symbol of self-expression. You'll never have to worry about losing your favorite piece, and you'll look put together from the moment you wake up. It's effortless, meaningful, and designed to be part of your everyday life.
What is permanent jewelry exactly?
Permanent jewelry is a custom-fitted chain (bracelet, anklet, necklace, ring, or hand chain) that's welded together without a clasp. It's designed to be worn 24/7—through showers, workouts, swimming, and everything in between. Not ready for permanent? We can always add a clasp instead.
Can I swim or workout with my permanent jewelry?
Absolutely! One of the best things about permanent jewelry is that it's made to endure your daily life. It'll be with you when you're hitting the gym, swimming in the ocean, and showering. Our materials (14k gold-filled, sterling silver, and 14k solid gold) are selected specifically for everyday durability.
How do I care for my permanent jewelry?
Because the jewelry is made from high-quality materials, it's designed to withstand everyday wear. However, keeping it clean and dry when possible will help prolong its shine and luster. There are also many products on the market that will help maintain it looking brand new.
Is permanent jewelry safe?
Yes, it's completely safe. The welding process is done by trained professionals who prioritize your comfort and safety. A piece of leather is placed between your skin and the spot getting welded, and safety goggles are provided. The process takes just seconds.
How much does permanent jewelry cost?
We keep our pricing straightforward and easy to understand. Instead of charging per inch like many do, we charge a flat price based on the piece type (bracelet, necklace, anklet, ring) and the chain tier you choose. Charms and connectors are optional add-ons.
Check out our pricing page for full details.
Do I need an appointment?
Walk-ins are always welcome at our Mercato store! If you'd like to book an appointment, we recommend it so we can save a time slot for you and your group.
What happens if my chain breaks or the weld fails?
We stand by the quality of our weld and product. When you purchase from us, you're covered under the Summie Warranty:
- If your permanent jewelry breaks or tarnishes, we will repair it for you at no charge for up to 1 (one) year from the date of purchase.
- Bring your piece into our store and we will take care of it for you.
Proof of purchase is needed to qualify. We are not responsible for lost or stolen jewelry. See our full warranty page for details.
Can I get it removed if I need to?
Yes! If you need your jewelry removed for any reason (medical procedure, MRI, etc.), you can carefully cut it with small scissors or wire cutters, or visit us in-store and we'll help. Chains removed for medical procedures are covered under our warranty for free re-welding.
