ABSTRACT:
A jewelry clasp is provided, comprising a first hollow member having a base end and a distal end, wherein the distal end includes a first eyelet member fixedly inserted therein; a second hollow member having a base end and a distal end, wherein the distal end includes a second eyelet member fixedly inserted therein; and a third hollow member having a linking member fixedly inserted therethrough, wherein the linking member includes a first end matably engageable with the first eyelet member, and a second end matably engageable with the second eyelet member. In a preferred embodiment, at least one end of the linking member includes a hook member for removably engaging one of the eyelet members. Preferably, the hollow members are crimped so to avoid the use of adhesives. More preferably, the eyelet members are positioned on a cable or chain such that when the clasp is connected, the hook member will be directed away from the wearer.
