This is a gift certificate for an Infinite permanent bracelet or necklace, to be painlessly welded on at our Louisville, KY fine jewelry store. Bracelets are priced per inch and vary with length of chain required. If you spend under the gift certificate amount we will happily refund you the difference. You are also able to spend more than your gift certificate amount  if a more expensive chain or charm is selected.

You will need to make an appointment for the welding on of your jewelry.

            *Please read through completely before making your booking*

One appointment can accommodate two people; please book additional appointments if you are bringing a group.

While we cannot guarantee welding without an appointment, we can often accommodate walk-ins. You can always try your luck!

Please arrive 5-10 minutes before your appointment so we begin on time.

While the connecting takes just a few minutes, please expect a wait. We can only hold your spot if you are present.

We don't recommend this process if you have ever had an allergic reaction to 14 karat gold.

What is permanent jewelry?
Also referred to as infinite jewelry, forever jewelry, endless chain, zapped jewelry, or welded bracelets, permanent jewelry is a unique way to honor any commitment you might be making whether to a loved one or yourself. Looking for a special way to celebrate a birthday, bridal shower, baby shower, or anniversary? Book Now!

How does it work?
We offer a curated selection of fine 14k white and yellow gold chains for you to choose from. We customize the chain length to fit your wrist or neck, connect the two ends with a tiny jump ring, and then weld it closed. This means there is no clasp. However, if at any point you need to remove it, you can clip the jump ring with scissors. We can always reattach it for you later.

"Permanent" does not mean it won't break. Just like any other piece of fine jewelry it is vulnerable to daily wear & tear and should be treated with care in order to guarantee it lasts a long, long time. Please read our POLICIES before booking.

NOTE: Currently we offer bracelets and necklaces. Chain styles change all the time so you may have the best variety and quality possible. Prices below do not include tax. Payment is due at time of appointment. All sales are final.

                                                  ~  Charms start at $112 ~

 

Policies and Info:

• We can service 1-2 people in a 30-minute time slot. 
• If you need to reschedule please notify us 12 hours in advance in order to reschedule.
• We use a high-quality arc welding machine. Unlike soldering, there is no flame, just a tiny spark which presents no danger to you. 
•  Anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Minimum welding age is 12 years old.
• We currently only offer bracelets and necklaces. Permanent Jewelry is custom-fitted therefore, they are FINAL SALE, but so fun!

• Can I remove my Infinite jewelry, if needed?  Yes. Your Infinite bracelet is intended to be permanent, but there might be a time when removing it is necessary. The chains are lightweight, so we recommend having someone else carefully cut one link with a pair of scissors. If you wish to have it welded back on later, we are happy to do that for $20.

•  How should I care for my bracelet?  You can clean your bracelet or necklace (and charms) with warm water, a gentle toothbrush and dish soap. This will help remove any dirt and debris that might have built up on your jewelry.

• What if it accidentally breaks or stretches out?   If it breaks off within the first 14 days we will weld it back on or replace it for free. If it breaks within the first 30 days we will weld it back on for free, but lost bracelets will not be replaced. After 30 days, your first repair or adjustment is free regardless of what happened; every repair or adjustment there after will have a $20 fee. Additional charges may apply if the chain is severely damaged or if gemstones need to be replaced. We can create a replica of your initial bracelet, however you would then need to pay full price. We will not repair or put on permanent jewelry that that did not come from Merkley Kendrick Jewelers.

• How long will my Infinite jewelry last? Weeks, months, or years, depending on your lifestyle. While these pieces are designed to withstand everyday wear, they do have their limits. Certain rigorous activities, and factors can make it more prone to breakage.

• Will there be a problem at airport security?  No, fine jewelry is TSA approved and not required to be removed through airport security.

   If you have any questions, email us at hello@mkjewelers.com any time!

The tradition of giving a new born baby a silver spoon goes back centuries. But why give a baby a spoon you ask? Silver is a precious metal, thus when you give an infant a silver gift you offer a piece of the future health and wealth you desire for the child. Giving a silver teaspoon for a Baptism means wishing the new-born happiness and prosperity and throughout life. This version is a simple design measuring 5.5 inches long and is able to be engraved should you chose to personalize it.

The tradition of a christening cup, or birthing cup, is thought to date back to the ancient drinking vessels of Northern Europe or perhaps even represent the 'silver chalice' used at the Last Supper.

This silver plated version measures 3.125 inches tall and is ready to be gifted as is or let us engrave it with a quote or the name of your recipient.

Let them choose what their heart desires from our extensive collection of fine jewels and timepieces. Select the amount and we will send either a paper certificate or a digital code for use on our website or instore.
