These are the most common types of clasps used in beadwork.

Hook and Loop Easy to use. Can be made by hand with some wire (gauge 20 or thicker). May come apart if hook is stretched.

Gold Hook & Eye Clasp - 15 Sets

Barrel Clasp Attractive, simple, and unobtrusive. May come untwisted on anklets.

Value Pack Etch Barrel Clasp-Silver

Spring Ring The old standby: inexpensive and secure. Often requires nimble fingers to use.

Lobster Claw A favorite. Secure, attractive, easy to use, but a little pricy. Use a jump ring or split ring for the other side.

Toggle Clasp Simple and elegant. Can be bulky, but is great for thick necklaces.
