Planning your next getaway and wondering whether your permanent jewellery can come with you? Good news, that's one of the best things about permanent jewellery! From airport days and poolside lounging to beach walks, dinners and nights out, your jewellery is designed to be part of your everyday life.
At Weld & Wore, our permanent jewellery is custom-fitted in 925 sterling silver and 14k gold filled, making it perfect for those who want jewellery they can wear without constantly worrying about taking it on and off.
So, can you wear permanent jewellery on holiday? Absolutely, just give it a little extra care while you're away.
Permanent Jewellery & Flying
One of the questions we get asked most is whether you need to remove your permanent jewellery before flying.
The great thing about permanent jewellery is that there's no clasp to remove and no need to take your bracelet, anklet or necklace off when travelling. Our permanent jewellery is also not magnetic, meaning you can keep your jewellery on when going through airport security. Of course, airport security procedures can vary, so always follow the instructions of the security staff at your airport.
That means there's no need to worry about removing your favourite piece, packing it safely in your hand luggage, or accidentally leaving it behind at security.
And let's be honest, a permanent anklet is the perfect holiday accessory. You can step straight off the plane and into holiday mode without worrying about packing another piece of jewellery!
The Perfect Holiday Accessory
Permanent jewellery is made for life's special moments and holidays are definitely one of them.
Whether you're relaxing by the pool, exploring a new city, heading out for dinner or dancing the night away, your jewellery stays with you. There's no clasp to catch on your clothes, no jewellery box to remember to pack and no worrying about losing your favourite piece while you're away.
Permanent anklets are especially perfect for holidays, adding that effortless finishing touch to sandals, swimwear and summer outfits.
You can even create a matching set with a permanent necklace, bracelet and anklet, making your holiday jewellery feel completely personal. Add some of our 100+ charms and you've got a piece that can become a little reminder of your trip.
Can You Swim with Permanent Jewellery?
Yes, you can wear your permanent jewellery in the sea and swimming pool, but there are a few things to keep in mind.
Salt water and chlorine can affect the appearance of jewellery over time, particularly sterling silver, so it's a good idea to rinse your jewellery with clean, fresh water after swimming. This removes salt, chlorine and other residue before it has a chance to sit on the chain.
If you're spending your entire holiday going between the pool and the sea, giving your jewellery a quick freshwater rinse each day is an easy habit that can help keep it looking its best.
And if you're heading into a hot tub or spa, it's worth being particularly careful, as higher levels of chemicals can be harsher on jewellery.
Don't Forget the Sunscreen!
Your holiday routine probably involves plenty of suncream, moisturiser, aftersun and body oils, and these can leave a layer of product on your jewellery, making it look dull.
There's no need to avoid your favourite SPF, just try to apply it carefully around your jewellery and allow products to absorb before your jewellery gets coated in them. If any product does build up on your chain, simply give it a gentle clean when you get the chance.
Perfume and other beauty products can also contribute to residue and dullness, so applying them in areas where your jewellery doesn't sit is a good habit.
How to Clean Your Permanent Jewellery on Holiday
The good news is that cleaning your permanent jewellery doesn't need to become another holiday chore.
For a quick clean, use:
Warm water + mild soap + a soft toothbrush or cloth
Gently clean around the chain and between the links, rinse thoroughly with fresh water and pat dry with a soft, clean cloth. This is particularly useful after swimming, applying sunscreen or spending the day at the beach.
For 925 sterling silver, you can also use a suitable jewellery polishing cloth if your piece starts to look a little dull or develops natural tarnishing.
Why Permanent Jewellery Is Perfect for Every Occasion
Although holidays are the perfect excuse to show off your jewellery, permanent jewellery isn't just for summer.
It's designed to become part of your everyday style, whether you're at work, working out, travelling, celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a quiet weekend at home.
You can create jewellery to mark friendships, relationships, birthdays, milestones, holidays and memories, or simply choose a chain because you love the way it looks.
And because you can continue adding charms to your jewellery later, your pieces can evolve with you and become a collection of memories rather than just another accessory.
Your Holiday, Your Jewellery
So, if you're heading away this year, don't worry about leaving your Weld & Wore jewellery at home.
Wear your permanent bracelet, anklet, necklace, ring or hand chain, enjoy your holiday and make memories without constantly taking your jewellery on and off. Just remember to give it a little freshwater rinse after swimming and a gentle clean whenever it needs it.
And when you get home, you'll still have your permanent jewellery to remind you of those sunny days long after the holiday is over.
