This is a good time to have us braze (solder) the Bail closed so you do not loose your pendant. The factory supplied Bails are 2 to 3 mm rings and not soldered closed. Add a day for our shop schedule and to the usual ship out time. It's worth the extra wait to get the Bail installed properly upfront and save time, money and travel. Where options are offered you may have our shop install these optional pendant loops (known as Bails) to accommodate different size chains.
