Welded permanent jewelry — in 
Permanent welded jewelry at The Bronze Lily is a clasp-free, welded-on bracelet, anklet, necklace, ring, hand chain, or custom-designed body chain designed to stay on through showers, swimming, workouts, and sleep, in St. Petersburg, Florida. Available in sterling silver (bracelet $55, anklet $70, necklace from $80, ring $15, hand chain $100) or 14k gold-filled (bracelet $60, anklet $75, necklace from $85, ring $20, hand chain $120). Body chains are custom-designed with the client and custom-quoted — starting at $275+ sterling silver / $306 14k gold-filled (final price depends on the design). Welded in-studio at 2851 1st Avenue North — text or call 727-218-7045 to book; same-day appointments by request. Available as a mobile event for bachelorettes, bridal parties, milestone birthdays, and group celebrations within the St. Petersburg area — inquire for pricing. Removable at home by clipping the jump ring — the small fused link — or by visiting the studio for a clean cut. The weld itself is a fused point, not a knot. Ideal for a personal milestone, a friendship piece, or a forever-memento from a moment that mattered.
What it is
Sized to you. Welded closed.
Stays on.
Permanent welded jewelry is exactly what it sounds like: a custom-sized chain — sterling silver or 14k gold-filled — welded closed at the wrist, ankle, neck, finger, or hand. No clasp, no lock, no taking it off. It's a piece of jewelry that becomes part of your daily life: showers, workouts, swims, sleep. The weld is a fused point — nearly invisible — and to take it off, you clip the jump ring (the small fused link) yourself at home, or come back to the studio for a clean cut.
It's also a moment. The spark of the weld is the part nobody forgets — and it's why permanent jewelry tends to happen in groups: bachelorettes, bridal parties, milestone birthdays, friend anniversaries. You're not buying a thing. You're marking a moment.

How it works
Three 
Selection, sizing, the weld. From start to finish, per piece.
Select.
Your jeweler walks you through chain styles and metals. Pick your placement, your chain, and — if you want — connectors (think charms, but flush; no dangle, no catch).
Size.
The chain is sized to your wrist, ankle, neck, finger, or hand — snug but never tight, or however you request the fit. A little tighter; a little looser. Up to you.
The weld.
A controlled pulse of heat fuses — the spark — the two ends together. The weld is instant. The seam is nearly invisible. Done in seconds; done forever.
Booking + Walk-Ins
Text or call first. 
The Bronze Lily is at 2851 1st Avenue North, St. Petersburg, FL. Same-day appointments are welcome — but please text or call 727-218-7045 first, or book online through Square. We'll confirm a jeweler is on the floor, prep the chain selection for you to view, and give you a time to come in.
Unannounced walk-ins are not guaranteed service. A two-minute text saves a wasted trip.
It may not look busy when you walk in — like we should be able to take you right then — but not all of our staff are permanent jewelry artists. We could have nobody on the floor at that moment with the experience to weld a piece for you. A quick text confirms a jeweler is here before you make the trip.
Group of 4 or more? See Mobile Jewelry Events below — worth booking ahead.


Studio · 2851 1st Ave N · welding station detailThe spark, the bond, the moment you and your friend(s) won't forget.
Welded jewelry, on 
Bachelorette weekends, bridal mornings, milestone birthdays, friend-group rituals, corporate activities — we'll bring the welding setup to your venue, hotel, home, or Airbnb. Each guest selects metal, placement, and chain style on-site. The spark happens around your group instead of in our studio.
Bachelorette & bridal mornings.
A piece from the bride to her squad, welded the morning of — or a bachelorette ritual the night before. The most-booked mobile occasion.
Milestone birthdays.
30, 40, 50, 60. A piece for the year you turn it. We come to the dinner, the brunch, the rooftop, the home.
Corporate & team activities.
Group events that aren't a wine-and-paint. A shared piece, a shared moment, no group activity to suffer through.
Friend-group rituals.
Annual girls' trip. Decade-long friendship anniversary. A no-occasion occasion. The room comes to you.
Pricing is custom based on guest count, location, and event scope.

Tourist memento. "I came to St. Pete for the beach. I'm leaving with this."
Friendship anniversaries. The people you've kept for ten or twenty years.
Personal milestone. Finishing grad school, leaving a marriage, hitting a year sober — whatever the occasion. Booked solo.
Living with it
Shower in it. Sleep in it.
in it.
Permanent jewelry is built for daily life. Showers, swimming, workouts, sleep — all fine. The chain is sized loose enough that it won't snag, and the weld is fused, not knotted, so it won't come undone.
The one thing to avoid: prolonged hot tub or chlorine pool exposure. Fine on a one-off vacation. Daily, over time, it'll lighten the gold-filled finish or turn the sterling silver.
If the chain breaks: bring it back to the studio. We'll re-weld free within 14 days; standard $15 cost after.
To take it off: clip the small fused link — it's called the jump ring — and the chain comes off in seconds. Save the chain. Bring it back when you want it re-welded.
Important · lost-chain policyIf your chain breaks and you lose it — no matter the circumstance — The Bronze Lily is not responsible for the lost piece, and we do not issue refunds or replacements. If you bring the broken chain back, we'll re-weld it free within 14 days ($15 after). If the chain is gone, you'll need to purchase a new piece. This is the same policy any major jewelry retailer applies.

Pop into our 1920s studio (short car or rideshare from any downtown or beach hotel) for the lobby photo moment, or we'll bring the welding setup to your Airbnb or hotel for the bachelorette party. Each piece welds in under 5 minutes per person.

Permanent Jewelry 
How much is permanent jewelry at The Bronze Lily?
Sterling silver: bracelet $55, anklet $70, necklace from $80, ring $15, hand chain $100, custom-designed body chain from $275. 14k gold-filled: bracelet $60, anklet $75, necklace from $85, ring $20, hand chain $120, custom-designed body chain from $300. Necklace pricing varies by length and is quoted at sizing. Body chains are designed with the client and final pricing depends on the design.
What metals and pieces do you offer?
We weld sterling silver and 14k gold-filled chains — no clasp, sized to you and welded closed on the spot. Sterling starts at $55 for a bracelet ($70 anklet, $80+ necklace, $15 ring); 14k gold-filled starts at $60. Bracelets, anklets, necklaces, and rings all available. And we weld it on for you — clients never weld on each other.
Can I shower and swim in it?
Yes. Welded jewelry is designed to stay on through showers, swimming, workouts, and sleep. Avoid prolonged chlorine pool and hot tub exposure to preserve the gold-filled finish or sterling silver coloring.
How do I remove it?
Clip the small fused link — the jump ring — and the chain comes off in seconds. You can do this yourself, or come back to the studio and we'll do it for you. Save the chain — bring it back when you want it re-welded.
How long does a permanent jewelry appointment take?
Most of your appointment is the fun part — choosing your chain and customizing it with a connector. The welding itself is quick: anywhere from a minute or two up to 10–12 minutes for smaller, more intricate pieces, depending on the piece and the artist. (For the record, Larae is our fastest — on a good day she can weld five pieces in under ten minutes.)
Can I add charms to my permanent jewelry?
Yes — we offer what we call connectors. Instead of dangling like a traditional charm, a connector sits inline and joins the chain together, so there's nothing to snag or catch — which means far less risk of the piece breaking off. It's customization that's as practical as it is pretty.
Does permanent jewelry tarnish?
It depends on the metal. Sterling silver will tarnish over time — that's normal for silver, and body oils, lotions, perfume, and hot tubs all speed it along. The fix is easy: a little sterling silver polish or a polishing cloth and a soft toothbrush shine it right back up. Our 14k gold-filled, on the other hand, won't tarnish or flake — it stays bright with no maintenance.
Will permanent jewelry set off airport security or need to come off for an MRI?
Airport security is no problem — permanent jewelry won't flag going through. An MRI is the exception: you'll need it removed first, since it's metal. It's easy to do without damaging your piece — look for the one link that's different from the rest, a small round circle called the jump ring, and snip there (any hospital can do it, or you can). When you're ready to put it back on, book a reweld appointment ahead of time and we'll weld it right back for $15.
Is there a minimum age for permanent jewelry? Can kids get it?
There's no minimum age — we've welded pieces on everyone from babies and toddlers to grandmothers. We just ask that children are always accompanied by a parent or guardian, who chooses and consents to the piece. And little ones get a treat: any child under six gets $5 off.
Can I have a permanent jewelry party?
Yes. Mobile jewelry events are available for bachelorettes, bridal parties, milestone birthdays, corporate events, and friend-group celebrations within the St. Petersburg area. Pricing is custom based on guest count, location, and event scope. Text or call 727-218-7045 to inquire.
What if the chain breaks?
Bring it back to the studio. We'll re-weld free within 14 days of your original weld. After 14 days, the standard re-weld fee is $15.
Do you do walk-ins?
Same-day appointments are welcome at 2851 1st Avenue North, but we strongly encourage texting or calling 727-218-7045 first, or booking online through Square. We'll confirm a jeweler is on the floor and prep the chain selection for you to view. Unannounced walk-ins are not guaranteed service.
If my chain breaks off and I lose it, will you refund or replace it?
No. The Bronze Lily does not offer refunds or replacements on permanent jewelry under any circumstance. If your chain breaks within 14 days, bring it back and we'll re-weld it free. After 14 days, re-welds are $15. If the chain is lost, you'll need to purchase a new piece. This is the same policy any major retailer would apply.
