Abstract: Described herein is a clip ring type ornamental clasp which can be used in various ways for securely gripping thin material like a handkerchief as well as relatively thick material like a belt. A clip ring is pivotally attached on a gripping surface of an ornament body through a ring support member. A rubber sheet with a bulged portion in its center portion is securely bonded on the gripping surface, while an anti-slip cover structure of rubber or other material of a large frictional coefficient is fitted on the clip ring. The anti-slip cover structure is provided with an opening of a larger diameter than a cloth threading hole in the clip ring, so that the marginal edges of the cloth threading hole are exposed at the inner periphery of the opening in the cover structure. The ornamental clasp grips cloth or other article securely between the anti-slip member and the anti-slip cover structure with high gripping force, and can be used in various ways without slip-off.
