name of clasp?
A few years ago it was fashionable to take a couple of small beaded
necklaces, twist them and secure each end with a (about 1.5inch) a clasp. The clasp looked like an oval and opened and one side of the twisted necklace was secured, put around the neck and then the other end was secured. I have many such necklaces left (about 24-36" in length) but have lost the clasps that secure same around the neck. I don't know what this clasp was called and have been unable to find same at jewelry supply companies on the net. Does anyone remember the name of it or know what I am talking about? Or better yet, where I can obtain same? Your help is appreciated. Monika |
