How permanent jewelry pricing works
Chain is purchased on spools and priced by the inch: a 7-inch bracelet in 14k gold-filled or sterling silver has a direct material cost before charms or jump rings.
Equipment wear (pulse-arc welder, sharpening tungsten electrodes, argon gas) and event booth fees should be amortized across your appointments.
Most permanent jewelry artists charge a 3x–4x markup on materials plus an hourly rate or service fee for the fitting and welding consultation.
