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.

what does a red stitched small pouch with colored beads and a handmade made cross with stuff on top that lookg?
it also had like lil gold looking rocks it looked like something that had to do with witchcraft i found it when my parents took my stuff out the room and i guess it was in their room like somwone put it in their i feel like someone intended to hurt our familyu with witchcraft weve been going through alot lately
our place isnt that big enough my parents were takig mymess out the room because i had made a mess i diddnt clean so they were fed up i share my room with my parents LAME!but true and it cant be a souvenir the only place we go to is mexicali to visit the family everyone in the house doenst recognize it its a red pouch hand made and sewed inside contained a cross that looks bad and little colored beads with rocks
It could have nothing to do with witchcraft at all. People have things happen to them all the time and often look to find something or someone to blame. This is part of life and everyone has bad things happen to them in life.
I have seen pouches like you describe in souvenir and handcraft shops all over the country.
You don’t really explain how you guys came to find it. Why were your parents taking things out of the room. You say they were taking things out of your room but it was in theirs? That really doesn’t make sense. More information please.
