Clasps
Clasps come in all the familiar styles, such as lobster, spring, barrel (screw together) and toggles. In addition, there are magnetic clasps, which are nice for necklaces because they use very powerful magnets in each half of the clasp that attract each other to make the connection (very neat). It’s very easy to connect magnetic clasps, so they are ideal for people that would otherwise have problems with this task.
