Handmade jewellery is beautiful, graceful and simply stunning. The artisans who create these magnificent designs that are sometimes worn by the stars who walk the red carpet on Oscar night go to great lengths to make sure their pieces stand out from the crowd. There is a side to these magnificent handmade works that we don’t usually notice or see very often; the clasps. These may be the most overlooked pieces of jewellery, but there are many different designs and types; from the simple stinging material or ribbon that ties in a bow to the fancy decorative ones. There are some clasps that may be part of the design and some just simply create a closure in a more utilitarian fashion.
The Claw Clasp
One of the most common clasp types in the claw. It’s a hook with a spring to open and close in order to secure the bracelet or necklace. This is a great and secure clasp but the small ones can be quite difficult to open. It is also very difficult to use the claw clasp on a bracelet as you may need two hands; one to hold it in place and one to control the mechanism.
The Hook Clasp
A hook clasp is simple and typically handmade. This type of clasp is easier to use especially on bracelets. All you need to do is hook the loop while the clasp is open. If your hooks are too wide at the opening the jewellery may fall off. Tightening it is as easy as pinching it together once it is hooked together.
The Toggle Clasp
The toggle clasp is a simple ring and bar setup. The bar is one that swivels and you would simply insert it into the ring. The bar needs to be longer than the diameter of the circle in order to stay hooked together. They are easy to use and usually are very decorative; they can serve as an embellishment as well as a closing clasp.
The Magnetic Clasp
The magnetic clasp is good for jewellery that is not too heavy and is not strung. They may be very convenient to use when they connect properly, but sometimes they do not get connected properly which can mean lost or jewellery. This would not be a good decision for a bracelet as you may catch it on something and the magnets are just not strong enough to hold together. Another place where a magnetic clasp would not work is a heavy, chunky necklace; again, the magnets are just not strong enough to hold together under the strain.
There are still many types of clasps that have not been covered; but this will give you some idea of what to look at or think about when purchasing jewellery or making jewellery to wear or sell. Beauty does not denote practicality; don’t just think of aesthetics when you choose your clasps. If you are making jewellery always try it on yourself first to make sure the clasp is easy to use and practical.

Cat's Claw Caps 100 Caps $6.49 Cat's claw ( Uncaria tomentosa ) is a woody vine native to the Amazon rainforest and other tropical areas of South and Central America. It is named after the hook-like thorns that grow along its vine. The bark and root of this herb have been used by South Americans going back to the Inca civilization to treat a variety of health problems including arthritis, stomach ulcers, inflammation, dysentery, and fevers. It was also used as a form of birth control. Test tube studies indicate that cat's claw may stimulate the immune system, help relax the smooth muscles (such as the intestines), dilate blood vessels (helping lower blood pressure), and act as a diuretic (helping rid the body of excess water). It also has antioxidant properties, helping rid the body of particles known as free radicals that damage cells. |
