FAQ's
What is Flash and Fuse Jewelry?
Flash and Fuse jewelry is a custom cut and hand welded piece of jewelry that you have designed on the spot! Also known as the 'infinity bracelet" or the "best friend forever bracelet".
How does it work?
By using our mini welding machine, we are able to fuse the jewelry onto your selected location in a moments notice- essentially a "Flash" will occur from our welding machine and BAM! You're fused!
What is Permanent Jewelry?
Answer Jewelry that is custom-sized and welded together so there’s no pesky clasp. You choose a chain (or two), we measure it to fit your wrist or ankle, and with a quick zap, you’re Fuzed!
What if I need to remove my jewelry?
No worries! You can easily cut off your permanent jewelry with a pair of scissors or wire cutters. Cut it at the ring where it was welded and save your chain so we can weld it back on for you.
How long does it last?
Your permanent jewelry will last months to years depending on the chain material, the products you use, and your lifestyle.
Can I wear my Jewelry through the airport?
Yes! We’ve flown far and wide with our jewelry on without a problem.
What about an MRI?
You will need to remove your jewelry before an MRI if your physician requires you to. Speak with your physician before an MRI. They will advise whether or not it will need to be removed.
Consult your doctor if you will be required to remove your permanent jewelry during your X-ray or MRI appointment. All ferrous metals (ie stainless steel) must be removed prior to entering the MRI exam room. If you are aren’t sure if your jewelry contains ferrous metals, you can use a magnet at home and test in on your own. If the magnet tries to “grab” the jewelry then it can not enter an MRI exam room. Gold and pure sterling silver are non-ferrous however, depending on large the jewelry is and how close it is to the part of the body you are having scanned, your doctor may ask you to remove it. If your doctor requires you to remove your welded bracelet or anklet for your appointment, you can always bring your piece back in and receive a re-weld for a $20 service fee. Cut the ring that attaches the chain together to ensure the cleanest look for re-welding.
**We can re-weld your piece for $20 with proof of purchase. An appointment will need to be made in advance.

THE PRICE
Gold vs. Gold Filled vs. Silver
If you would like to order Solid White or 1k gold, please reach out to us ahead of time. We do not keep these styles on hand and will need 2 weeks to order before your event or party. As the cost of gold fluctuates, we cannot price your piece without measuring the area first. We would require you to purchase ahead of time through us.
Gold filled is our most popular and durable selection. It does not tarnish easily and can be worn wherever. Most of our selection is 14k or 18k gold filled or rose gold filled.
Silver- yes we have it.. But we don't recommend it over our gold filled however we do understand that there is a love for silver pieces. Please be aware that it will need to be cleaned more regularly and will tarnish if left wet or exposed to certain chemicals like chlorine (pools) and salt water.
How much is it?
Our Prices vary depending on the piece you select. We have a selection of pieces that you can choose from. All solid gold or white gold pieces will need to be ordered ahead of time and are not listed on our site but will be available upon request.
Can you weld other pieces we bring in?
No, unfortunately we can only weld our own custom pieces due to the nature of the metals and our sourcing product guarantee.
What if it breaks?
We're all human- sometimes we can snag our bracelet or anklet on a. sock or t shirt out of pure accident- If that ever happens- we can can re-weld the same piece for $20 with proof of purchase originally.
