Hill Tribe Silver Line-grooved Round Toggle Clasp

This Hill Tribe silver round toggle clasp displays a line-grooved design that was achieved with primitive tools. All of our Hill Tribe silver products are genuine and hand-made. This particular toggle clasp is the perfect size for charm bracelets or necklaces. It is one of many Thai beads and pendants that are made by the Karen Hill Tribe in northern Thailand using traditional tribal methods passed down from generation to generation. Purchasing these Thai beads helps sustain a traditional craft and provides the Karen people with a reliable source of income. The silver content in our Hill Tribes silver beads and pendants is typically 95-99%, even higher than sterling (92.5%). This higher silver content is softer and therefore easier to shape into all the unique and wonderful styles. On close inspection you will notice that no two pieces are exactly alike, attesting to the handmade nature of these beautiful pieces.

Beautiful but hard to fasten
Date:June 17, 2012
Pros: Unique, Quality
Cons: Price, Ease of Use
Creation: bracelet
"This is a beautiful, bright, high-quality clasp, but it's difficult to fasten. I used it to make a bracelet with Swarovski 14mm twist beads, 10mm baroque pearls, and 6mm silver-plated crystal roundelles. While it looks great with these beads (echoing the size and shape of the twist beads), I had to create a large-ish loop when fastening the beading wire to the bar end to allow enough room to put the bar through the 8.5mm opening. It would be easier to fasten with smaller beads (my strand ended w/ the 6mm roundelle), but I feel like the clasp would visually overwhelm smaller beads. So, although it's very pretty, I probably wouldn't purchase again."
