Sterling Silver 16.5 x 8mm Marquise Filigree Safety Clasp

This sterling silver marquise-shaped safety clasp features an intricate open filigree design with a floral accents. Its elongated shape and delicate pattern look great when paired with knotted-pearl strands or other beaded strands. Safety clasps (also called pearl clasps) feature two parts that connect in two different ways, providing a fail-safe that helps prevent loss of higher-value necklaces or strands and are ideal for pearl and gemstone strands. The interior part of the clasp is a slender hook with notches along the outer edge; the exterior part is hollow except for a locking bar. The interior part hooks over the locking bar and then slides inside the exterior part, the notches catching along the inner sides to hold the clasp securely closed. Even if the notches fail for any reason, the hook keeps the strand in place.This clasp includes attach rings.
