what is permanent jewellery?

Permanent jewellery is jewellery that’s fitted directly onto the body and worn continuously, rather than being taken on and off each day. Most often, this means a fine chain bracelet, anklet, or necklace that’s welded closed so there’s no clasp. It’s not about being unable to remove it, it’s about choosing to wear something continuously as part of your everyday life.

• Is it actually permanent?

Not in the literal sense. Permanent jewellery can be removed if needed, either by cutting the chain or having it opened by a jeweller. The word “permanent” simply reflects the intention: it’s jewellery designed to be worn long-term rather than styled and swapped.

• Why do people choose it?

People often choose permanent jewellery to mark something meaningful:

• a relationship or connection

• a personal milestone or transition

• a reminder or intention

• or simply because they like the idea of a constant piece

It’s subtle, minimal, and personal, more like a gesture than a statement.

• What is permanent jewellery made from?

Rare Thing permanent jewellery is made from 100% recycled solid silver, 100% reccycled 9ct gold and we have also have a selection of gold-filled chains, chosen for strength, durability, and skin compatibility. The chain is sized to fit you, fitted on the body, and then closed using a small weld. The process is quick, gentle, and safe when done properly.

• What if I need to remove it?

If you ever need to remove your permanent jewellery — for medical reasons, work, travel, or just because you want to, it can be cut and later repaired or re-fitted.

• Who is it for?

Permanent jewellery is for people who:

• like simple, minimal jewellery

• want something meaningful but understated

• enjoy wearing the same piece every day

• prefer jewellery that becomes part of them rather than an accessory

It’s not for everyone and that’s part of what makes it nice. It’s about choosing something small and meaningful to carry with you, quietly, over time.
