Discover SOLDERED, Sarah & Sebastian's Permanent Jewellery Experience

From what to expect to how to book your appointment, here's everything you need to know about our SOLDERED experience, Australia's original permanent bracelet service.

Our creative director, Sarah Munro, vividly recalls the story of her aunt's visit to the Marais, Paris in the 1970s, where she had a chain soldered to her wrist in honour of her trip. Inspired by this memory, Sarah brought the concept to life at Sarah & Sebastian. SOLDERED is Australia's original permanent jewellery service, an immersive experience where a solid gold chain is custom-fitted and soldered directly onto the body as a ring or bracelet with no clasp, using the traditional jeweller's flame.

A symbolic promise, an ode to a moment in time, or a tangible expression to commemorate enduring bonds and connections, SOLDERED is the modern alternative to the traditional friendship bracelet.


THE SOLDERED JEWELLERY EXPERIENCE: WHAT TO EXPECT

Taking just 15 minutes to complete, this unique, in-person experience is hosted at our stores across Australia. During your appointment, you will have the opportunity to browse our full range of 18-karat solid yellow and white gold chains, fixed diamond chains and Slider charms including letters, birthstones and ocean-inspired motifs. Once you have chosen your preferred pieces, your Solderer will tailor each chain to you by measuring your wrist or finger and cutting it to the desired fit (we recommend nice and snug).

You are then fitted with a protective leather armband to shield your skin, before the two ends of the chain are soldered together directly onto the wrist, using a micro-soldering torch. After a quick test of durability, the chain is given a final polish, leaving you with a seamless SOLDERED bracelet.

For a shared experience with loved ones or friends, we offer group SOLDERED appointments of up to four people per session. Simply select the option to add additional people to your appointment when booking.

In 2022, we introduced the SOLDERED ring, which follows the same custom-fit process as the bracelet, however, in this case, the chain is carefully soldered together and polished off the body.

“SARAH & SEBASTIAN has always sought to challenge traditional jewellery, by rebelling against convention with our manufacturing techniques and innovative approach. SOLDERED is an extension of this ethos,” explains co-founder Robert Sebastian Grynkofki.

SOLDERED chains are crafted from solid 18-karat gold, ensuring that they won’t tarnish or dull over time from swimming, showering or simply daily wear. If for any reason they need to be removed, we simply recommend cutting at the jump ring (the point where it was soldered together) so that it may be re-soldered at an Aftercare appointment. During an Aftercare appointment, you can add additional Sliders to existing bracelets and rings to further personalise your piece.
