This Stainless Steel Ribbon wire piece has a 16g segment ring for it’s clasp
I’ve been looking for simple yet stunning ways to add decorative clasps to one of the lines of Bracelets and Chokers I sell without having to resort to doing hot connections. Inspiration came to me when I was browsing online for some stainless steel designs. It turned out to be so simple I’m now wondering why I never thought of it.

Celtic Sun Shield and Barbell Choker in Sterling
Gauged Body Piercing barbels and captive bead rings make wonderful clasps. They have the added benefit of being nickel free, and are easy to find everywhere.

Which means my clients can later go and find other pieces they like to be able to change up the look of the jewelry they’ve bought from me.
