We are happy to use gemstones provided by you. Our jeweller will need to asses the gems to ensure they are compatible with the design.

Care and Maintence
How to clean my jewelry?
Jewelry should be cleaned regularly to retain its brilliance.
- Our Store: Come by and get it professionally cleaned in our ultrasonic.
- At Home: You can use a few drops of Dawn dish soap and some warm water to clean your jewelry. Remember to rinse with water and do not do this over a sink and risk dropping your jewelry down the drain.
- For a deeper clean, use our foaming cleansers specifically formulated for our jewelry while being gentle on your skin.
Why is my white gold a little yellow?
White gold is an alloy created by mixing yellow gold with white metals such as nickel or palladium. The resulting 14K or 18K white gold has a faint yellow hue. To achieve that bright white colour the jewelry is plated with rhodium.
Over time the rhodium plating will wear off to expose the original colour of the white gold. Routine rhodium plating of your white gold jewelry is common.
Jewelry such as rings will wear faster and require more frequent plating than a necklace. This is an important maintenance factor to consider when purchasing an engagement ring or wedding band.
We offer rhodium plating services for jewelry purchased with us or from another jeweller. Contact us or come by the store to get a quote for servicing.
Can I polishing my jewelry?
Polishing jewelry can make it look new again by removing all the surface scratches.
For gold jewelry we do NOT recommend doing this often as polishing will remove layers of gold off your jewelry to smooth out the scratched.
Platinum jewelry is more durable and is able to handle more frequent polishing. Platinum is more malleable and during the polishing process the metal is able to move in to filling in the scratches. This achieves that new scratch-free look with minimal loss of platinum.
The Sparkle Bar
What is permanent jewelry?
A beautiful piece of jewelry that us custom fitted for you without a clasp.
We expertly weld the bracelet, necklace or anklet directly onto you. This ensures that your forever jewelry is tailored to your wrist, anklet or neck, free of clasps, and typically maintenance-free.
While we envision these pieces as enduring, they can be gently removed with scissors or nail clippers if necessary.
Do you do anklets?
YES!
We've tested our chains and have selected the best ones suited for anklets.
When fitted correctly, anklets are comfortable to wear with boots and sneakers. Anklets are not reserved for the summer.
It is common for anklets to stretch a little over the first few months. Come back to us to have it re-adjusted back to that perfect fit.
How do I remove it?
Simply use a pair of sharp scissors or nail clippers to cut it at the weld point (round or oval ring).
Keep your chain in a sealed bag and bring it back to us to get it re-welded or to add a clasp.
How long will these last?
Permanent jewelry is not indestructible and it may break when pulled with enough force. We create our permanent jewelry with safety in mind and your special piece is designed to break under a specific force for safety reasons. This is designed to prevent injury. Please remember to follow safety protocols.
If you need to remove your permanent jewelry, save it and come back to get it re-welded on or to add a clasp.
Do you offer sterling silver, gold filled or solid gold?
We offer a great selection of chains in different materials to bring this experience to everyone while still being able to stand behind our product's quality.
We offer chains in the following metals.
- Italian Sterling Silver 925, American Standard Gold-Filled
- 10K Gold (special order)
- 14K Gold
All chains can be made into a bracelet or necklace. Anklets are only available in select chains that have been tested for durability.
How do I take care of my permanent jewelry?
Proper maintenance will increase the life of your jewelry. Here are a few care tips to follow.
- After exposure to pools or ocean, rise with water and pat dry.
- When doing sports or operating tools, consider wearing something over your jewelry to prevent snagging and potential breakage.
Bracelet: sweat bands, spandex cuff, etc.
Anklet: long socks to go over your anklet
- Polish and clean your jewelry with the provided polishing cloth
- For sterling silver jewelry, avoid contact with sulfur as it can cause immediate tarnishing (usually reversible)
Lifetime Warranty on Permanent Jewelry
We want you to have peace of mind and fully enjoy your permanent jewelry. We offer a lifetime warranty on all of our permanent jewelry that is welded on.
We carefully curate the chains we offer and work with reputable manufacturers to produce only quality chains that compliment permanent jewelry.
RE-WELDS: If you need to remove it, save your chain and come back for a complimentary re-weld.
REPAIR: If your chain snapped we can try our best to repair the chain. In the event the chain is beyond repair we offer a discount towards a replacement.
RESIZING: Our bodies are always changing and we want you to always have that perfect fit. It is also common for your permanent jewelry to stretch a little over the first few months. Come back and we can shorten the jewelry back to that perfect fit.
CAN'T COMMIT: If your permanent jewelry doesnt fit your lifestyle or you want to change your stack, come back to add a clasp. Clasps are complimentary for all sterling silver and gold filled chains.
No receipt is required. We will find your customer profile in our system.
All sales are final!

Wax Carving Ring Workshop
What is the difference between the Workshop and Surprise Date options?
The main difference is flexibility.
Our workshops are offered monthly and will be themed. Everyone attending will be guided to create their own version of the featured ring style (signet, stacking, domed, etc). Snack and refreshment will be provided and everyone goes home with a goody bag.
Our Surprise Date option is available any time during business hours. Come into our store and we will provide all the tools, instructions, a treat to create your ring. Our staff is always available for questions to help you create your one of a kind piece. This option has more creative and time flexibility. You can pick which style of ring you would like to carve or if you want to freehand something completely different.
How long until I get my sterling silver ring back?
For workshops, we require 3 weeks to transform your wax creation into a sterling silver ring. Additional time may be required for rings with additional upgrades such as gold plating, engraving, stone setting and etc.
For Surprise Date, we require 4-5 weeks. Rings created during the month will be sent for casting with the rings from our workshop. Rings may be completed sooner for those that come in just before our workshop date. Expedited option is available for an additional fee.
Please contact us if you have any questions.
Do you have workshops on the weekend?
