Permanent Anklets: Everything You Need to Know

So what is permanent jewelry? Permanent jewelry is a way to keep a favorite piece close to you - forever.  Unlike traditional jewelry that attaches with a clasp, permanent pieces are welded on. It’s both stylish and symbolic; many people get a piece of permanent jewelry as a lasting symbol of a special relationship or occasion.

Permanent anklets are a great way to express personal style through a beautiful piece of jewelry. Forever Golden offers permanent jewelry in New Jersey, including gorgeous permanent jewelry anklets that dazzle!

What are Permanent Anklets?

A permanent jewelry anklet wraps around the ankle and is welded closed, versus using a traditional clasp. They can be made of gold or sterling silver, and can even be customized with a personal charm or other symbol.

This kind of permanent jewelry is often applied during a special occasion, like a reunion of good friends, or to celebrate something like a bridal shower. It symbolizes something (or someone) you want to remember. Every time you look at it, you’ll remember that wonderful moment or relationship.

History and Cultural Significance of Permanent Anklets

Anklets have been around for over 8,000 years.  They can be traced back to ancient Egypt, Africa, and India. They were made from everything from pieces of leather to bone to precious metals, and symbolized things like social status, wealth, the wearer’s family line, or a woman’s marital status.

In the last century, starting around the 1930s, the anklet has become more of a fashion accessory. Forever Golden carries modern permanent pieces, including anklets, that offer gorgeous style and timeless elegance.

Advantages of Permanent Anklets

Permanent anklets have become so popular because they’re effortless to wear and require minimal maintenance. You don’t have to worry about losing it, since they’re welded on versus using a clasp. They easily move with you through daily life, like showering, swimming, or working out.

They provide an elegant, minimalist style note that goes with everything.  More importantly, your anklet is a lovely reminder of a special moment or relationship that you carry with you each day.

Potential Drawbacks of Permanent Anklets

It’s important to check for potential sensitive skin reactions before applying the anklet.

Note that removing the piece is a bit more challenging, since it’s welded on. It can be cut off for things like an MRI or medical procedure, preserving the link for reattachment afterwards.

While the materials are sturdy, special care should be taken to avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or cleaners, and to rinse the piece clean as soon as possible.

Care and Maintenance Tips for Permanent Anklets

After exposure to salt water or chlorine, rinse your anklet with clean water.  Every so often, wipe it down with mild soap and water to remove skin oils or lotions. Dry with a soft cloth.

If you need to have it removed for any reason, reputable jewelers like Forever Golden can clip it, preserving the jump link, so that it can be reattached later.

How to Choose the Right Permanent Anklet

First, check that you don’t have any skin reactions to the gold or silver in the anklet. Next, decide which material is more “you.” Which will best complement your style, your wardrobe, or other pieces in your jewelry collection?

Next, choose the kind of chain style that best suits you. Forever Golden offers various “levels,” from thin and delicate to bolder and more substantial. You might even want a custom look with layered chains.

Finally, decide if you would like an extra level of customization by adding a special charm (or charms). During your consultation, you can see our full selection and how they’ll work together.
