JOGAVI is a compact permanent jewelry shop on North Fairfax Avenue, a short walk from West 3rd Street. Choice covers 14k solid gold, 14k gold filled and sterling silver chains, with gemstones, charms and engraving added on the spot. The welding itself takes minutes: chain gets sized on the wrist, ankle or neck, then the ends are fused with no jump ring left showing. Regulars also buy stacking rings and one off custom necklaces here.
Good pick for a first try, because gold filled keeps the bill low and the staff explain the process without a hard sell. Existing bracelets can sometimes be turned into permanent pieces, worth asking about in advance. The space is tiny, so a party of eight will feel cramped, and street parking on Fairfax is its own adventure.
