"Permanent" in this case refers to jewelry that is welded together onto you, so there are no clasps. This jewelry is designed to be long-lasting and durable, but not necessarily everlasting. You can cut the jewelry off if needed.
You can, although we do advise against removing the jewelry yourself, as it can damage the jewelry. If you need to remove it, cut the jump ring we welded, right next to your charm (not on the charm.) Please contact us for assistance.
If your jewelry breaks at the weld, we will re-weld it complimentary for the life of your jewelry. If the break occurs anywhere other than the weld, it will require an assessment, and repairs will start at $15+.
