A Look At Various Types Of Sterling Silver Clasps

Article by Melanie Spark

When you look at a necklace or a bracelet, one of the first things that you probably notice is the flow of the design. Believe it or not, a clasp is more than just a functional device used to fasten your jewelry. In fact, it’s very much a part of the overall design and can be a very important focal point. This article will attempt to explain the various types of sterling silver clasps and how each one differs from the others. Why is this important? Quite simply, because a clasp is in many ways the most important finding on your jewelry because it keeps it securely in place.

Spring-Ring Clasp. This type of clasp is one of the most common, and is typically used for light to medium weight jewelry accessories. A spring-ring clasp is round in its design and features a small tip, which controls the opening and closing of the spring.

Lobster Claw Clasp. This type of clasp is also one of the more traditional styles found in bracelets and necklaces, but it is generally reserved for heavier styles that may need a little added strength. From the side, a lobster claw clasp will give the appearance of a teardrop shape, and is controlled by a tip that opens and closes the spring in the clasp. Because the lobster claw clasp is reserved for heavier styles, it is also a more expensive finding and adds value to the piece.

Toggle Clasp. A sterling silver toggle is a narrow piece of sterling silver, which is typically designed in the shape of a bar, which is then pushed through a sterling loop to act as a fastener for your necklace or bracelet. The toggle clasp is one that is both expensive and attractive, which makes it an important focal point for any jewelry accessory. Unlike the lobster claw or spring-ring clasps, a toggle clasp is not controlled by a spring. Instead, it is secured when the bar is pushed through the ring.

Slide Insert Clasp. This type of clasp is designed exactly as it sounds in that it features a box-like shape that is hollow on the inside. To secure a sterling silver slide insert clasp, the wearer will slide the nearly-flat tab into the box until it clicks, which indicates a secure closure. On some pieces of jewelry, a slide insert clasp will be accompanied by a side safety catch, which will add strength to the clasp of your necklace or bracelet. These types of clasps are often reserved for the most expensive styles in jewelry.

Magnetic Clasp. In recent years, the popularity of the magnetic clasp has soared to an amazing level. The convenience of a quick and easy way to secure jewelry while not having to fuss with a traditional clasp, which can be difficult if you have long fingernails, arthritic hands or certain other mobility challenges, is an attractive feature to many accessories. A magnetic clasp relies on a strong internal magnet, which works to pull both ends of the clasp together. In most cases, a magnetic clasp is used for light to medium weight jewelry pieces, which will not put excessive stress on the magnet.

Now that you know more about each individual type of sterling silver clasp, you can make an informed decision as to which will best suit your needs in terms of both wear and durability.
