Spring is in full bloom in Arlington, and we're bringing the gold to Rosslyn.

This Saturday, May 2, 2026, Golden Bond Jewelry is setting up at the Rosslyn Spring Market — an open-air, all-day celebration at The NOW Pop-Up Park in the heart of Rosslyn. Come find us between the live poetry, the coffee truck, and the face painting. We'll be welding bracelets all day — and bringing a curated selection of ready-to-gift pieces too.

Why You Should Come

This isn't just a market — it's basically a Saturday plan. From 10 AM to 3 PM, the Rosslyn Spring Market has lined up:

• Local pop-up vendors (that's us, plus the rest of the market)
• Turning the Page Bookstore for browsing
• Rossana Coffee Truck for caffeinating
• Face painting from 10:30 AM–12:30 PM (bring the kids)
• Live poetry from 11 AM–1 PM
• Live music from 1 PM–3 PM to wind the day down

Translation: come for the bracelet, stay for the espresso, leave with a hand-painted face and a poem stuck in your head. Honestly the best kind of Saturday.

Ways to Shop With Us — Welded or Wrapped

Mother's Day is May 10 — eight days after the market. So if you're stopping by Rosslyn looking for a gift, you've got options.

1. Get Welded On (For You, Or With Her)

Permanent jewelry is a chain — bracelet, anklet, or necklace — that's measured, fitted, and welded closed with a tiny pulse of light. No clasp. No taking it off. It's designed to be worn 24/7, through showers, workouts, sleeping, swimming. Once it's on, it's on.

Bring your mom (or your sister, or your best friend, or your daughter) and get matching welded bracelets together. It's one of our most-requested experiences — there's something about the shared moment of getting welded together that turns the jewelry into a memory you wear.

The process:

1. Browse our 14k solid gold and sterling silver chains
2. We measure and fit your chosen chain to your wrist, ankle, or neck
3. We weld it closed in about 10–15 minutes
4. You walk out wearing it

2. Shop Our Ready-to-Gift Collection

Can't bring her with you? We've got you. We're bringing a curated selection of pre-made, beautifully packaged jewelry — perfect for grabbing, gifting, and not having to weld onto someone who isn't there.

Think of it as solving the "my mom lives in Florida" problem. Pick a piece, we'll wrap it, you mail it (or hand-deliver it on May 10).

Pricing across the board:

• Sterling silver welded pieces start at $65
• 14k solid gold welded pieces start at $145
• Ready-to-gift pieces span a similar range — bracelets, necklaces, charms, and earrings

Cash, card, and Apple Pay all accepted at the table.

Getting There

Rosslyn is one of the most accessible neighborhoods in the DC metro — it's the first stop on the Blue, Orange, and Silver lines from DC.

• Metro: Rosslyn Station (Blue, Orange, Silver) — about a 3-minute walk to The NOW Pop-Up Park
• Driving: Garages available on Wilson Blvd, 18th Street North, and Nash Street. Street parking on Wilson, North Oak, 18th, Key, and Nash.
• Heads up: No public parking inside the pop-up park lot itself — use a nearby garage

Why Rosslyn, Why Us

We hear it all the time: "I wish you came to Arlington more." Lucky you — here we are!

Golden Bond serves the entire DC metro and Northern Virginia, including Arlington, Tysons, Reston, Old Town Alexandria, Fairfax, and DC proper. Markets and pop-ups are how we meet new people in new neighborhoods — and Rosslyn has been on our list for a while.

If you're an Arlington local who's been Instagram-stalking permanent jewelry videos and waiting for one to land near you: this is your weekend.
