What Makes Our Jewelry Chains Unique?
Inside Our 14k Solid Gold Luxe, Modern 14K Gold Fill, Mixed Metal & Specialty Chains, 925 Sterling Silver Permanent Jewelry Collections
We often hear that clients have gotten permanent jewelry before and after us - but nothing compares to the quality standard of Golden Bonds. There’s a reason our Modern Collections are the most requested in the regions, with rave reviews from customers, to market and events hosts, and corporate partners.
Modern Gold, Speciality & Sterling Silver collections give you the glow of gold -- without the solid gold price tag -- and it’s built to handle real life. All our permanent bracelets and chains are waterproof, tarnish-resistant, and designed to shine for 3–5 years of daily wear. That means you can shower in it. Sweat in it. Travel in it. Live in it.
Here’s what most people don’t realize: We don’t just source chains these days. We control our production of them.
Our founder, Lexie, has this habit going full nerd whens she finds something she loves. Quickly, she learned all she could about jewelry, taking her background in hair color and product science, and started refining, design and producing Golden Bond own chains.
We now proud to say as of 2026 all our chains are produced and sources with the aid of select long time production partners - and on occasion, a featured jewelry artist or brand collaborations! (PS: If you'd like to collaborate with us - we'd love to chat!)
Golden Bond Jewelry is everyday luxury that actually keeps up, built from the ground up.
What Makes Golden Bond Permanent Jewelry Chains Different?
Not all “14k gold” jewelry is created equal.
Our Modern Collection is crafted in 14K gold fill or 18k gold vermeil, meaning a thick layer of real gold is pressure-bonded to a durable base metal. This creates:
-
Long-lasting shine
-
Tarnish resistance
-
Strength for daily wear
-
A premium gold look at an accessible price
It’s the perfect middle ground between fashion jewelry and solid 14K gold.
And for many of our clients searching “permanent jewelry near me” in DC and Virginia — it’s the sweet spot.
Built for sparkle. Designed to move with you.
Each Modern chain is custom fitted and welded for a seamless, clasp-free finish.
No hooks.
No slipping.
No removing it at night.
Just a clean, continuous line of gold.
Prefer flexibility? You can add a clasp for versatility — perfect if you want the look of permanent jewelry with optional removal.
Whether you call it a forever bracelet, a welded bracelet, or waterproof permanent jewelry, the Modern Collection is built to perform.
Why Our Permanent Jewelry Chains Are Different
Golden Bond works directly with our partners to customize production of our own chain styles. That means:
-
We control thickness and gold weight
-
We test durability before launch
-
We refine link structure for welding performance
-
We eliminate weak jump ring stress points
This hands-on approach ensures our Modern chains meet our durability standards before they ever touch your wrist.
When you book with Golden Bond, you’re not just getting permanent jewelry — you’re getting chains developed specifically for longevity.
Permanent Jewelry Specific Chains - Designed to live on you.
Our Permanent Jewelry Collection is specially designed for weight, balance and success in wear. Our chains aren't the everyday chains you'll find at most places, and it's why our selection of micro-fine chains is so limited - we can fill you in on the why, in person.
Hint: in modified metals with thousands of suppliers, they aren't all built the same. This is why we control our own production :)
You'll find both solid gold and modern gold (and sterling silver) chains on our team members -- many of them being 1-2 year old! Some of Lexie's are even older... she keeps them in flawless shape by not playing with them.
