How can I ensure that a bracelet or necklace closed with a magnetic clasp doesnt fall off?
Magnet clasps are easy and fast to fasten, especially for people who have difficulty with other types of clasps. Unfortunately, their ease in fastening is also what makes them easy to pull open inadvertently. To prevent loss, you can either choose a magnetic clasp with a built-in lock, or make a small safety chain yourself. Choose a small, flexible chain less than 2mm in diameter. Cut about an inch of chain (for a bracelet, cut a piece long enough to allow your hand to pass through when the chain is attached to the clasp). Use jump or split rings to attach each end of the chain to each side of the magnetic clasp. Now even if the clasp detaches inadvertently, the chain will keep the jewelry from falling off.
