How to Select Suitable Gold Filled Clasps
Clasps keep the ends of necklaces and bracelets together. Choosing a kind of gold filled clasp depends on its use and as a component in the overall design of a jewelry piece. Some clasps hold the jewelry better than others, though they may be difficult to manipulate. Clasps have been existing through out history and found in every major civilization. We look at the different types of gold filled clasps.
Toggle clasp has two components – there is a hole at one end of the chain. At the other end there is a t-bar which is put into the hole. It has been found that the gold filled toggle clasp using spherical or round openings are simpler to put on and take off and are relatively more secure than those with oval openings.
Lobster claw gold filled clasp are famed for being secure. They are used in necklaces, bracelets and anklets. It has a tiny spring which keeps the arm closed till one pushes on the lever. They have been found to be simple to open and close.
Magnetic gold filled clasp is used by those people who encounter difficulties with other kind of clasps. These are people who have health problems which make it difficult to put jewelry on or taking it off. The principle of magnetic clasp is the use of magnetic charges. One end of the clasp has a positive charge which draws the negative charge on the other end of the clasp. These kinds of clasps are growing in popularity have become the latest fashion trend. You will find several people of various age groups wearing jewelry incorporating magnetic clasps.
First find out the size of the bracelet or necklace which requires the gold filled toggle clasp. Tension is used to keep the clasp closed. Hence lightweight jewelry is not suitable for toggle clasp. Ideally, charm bracelets and chunky necklaces are favorites. The Gold Filled Trigger Clasp should be as big as the majority of the items on the jewelry piece. The clasp should not be larger than the biggest jewelry component. Also it should not be smaller than the smallest jewelry component.
Spring ring clasps have a small lever that slides along a spherical ring in the backward direction. It is simpler to work with this clasp if the loop is large. This is a very popular kind of gold filled clasp which has cultivated a devoted following. You can use jewelry pliers to attach the clasp to the jewelry piece. You should make it a point to tighten all connections so that the jewelry is in one piece.
