...Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Phil 4:8
Clasp Options
  • Magnetic is the easiest to use.  This is a good option if you know you will always want the necklace at the same length.  I use strong magnets that will not come undone during normal wear, but they can be pulled off by children. (Ask me how I know this...)
  • Toggle is a clasp with a large silver circle on one end and a bar on the other.  You turn the bar parallel to the necklace chain to insert into the circle and then pull it perpendicular to hold the necklace on.  I consider this the second easiest to use.  Again, this is a good option if you don't need flexibility of length.
  • Lobster claw with chain extender is a great option for flexibility.  I usually add this clasp to shorter necklaces so that they can be worn choker style or anywhere up to 2 inches longer.  A lobster claw clasp is tear drop shaped with a small lever that is pushed down to open it.
  • Elastic is an option also.  If you would like me to string a piece on elastic instead of wire then you can forego a clasp altogether.  Please be advised that over time depending upon use, elastic can stretch and break.  (Usually at an inopportune time that doesn't allow you to collect all the fallen beads making reconstruction difficult.)

These options are available for all necklaces and bracelets.  If you would like a clasp different than what is described for the piece you order, just include that info with your quote request sent to: info@mizschmitty.com.
