Abstract: A magnetic jewelry clasp includes a first body member having a magnet defining a first magnetically attractive surface and a second body member that has a magnet defining a second magnetically attractive surface that magnetically connects to the first magnetically attractive surface to define a first locking arrangement of the clasp. The magnetic jewelry clasp also has (1) a second locking arrangement wherein a height of a bump on a first side of the second body member is long enough to get locked within a perimeter of the first safety clasp located on a first side of the first body member and (2) a third locking arrangement wherein a height of a bump on a second side of the second body member is long enough to get locked within a perimeter of a second safety clasp on a second side of the first body member.

Abstract: A jewelry clasp includes a first housing having a first locking member and securing a first magnetic configuration and a second housing having a second locking member and securing a second magnetic configuration. The first and second magnetic configurations have exposed faces with a north pole being positioned at a first side of the exposed face and a south pole being positioned at a second side of the exposed face. The jewelry clasp further includes a magnetic locking arrangement wherein the north pole and south pole of the first magnetic configuration are magnetically attracted and aligned with the south pole and the north pole of the second magnetic configuration and a mechanical locking arrangement wherein the first locking member slidably interlocks with a second locking member during alignment of the mechanical locking arrangement.

Abstract: A jewelry clasp that provides an ease for fastening and superior security. The jewelry clasp includes a first housing for securing a first magnet and a second housing for securing a second magnet. The first magnet has an exposed surface with a north pole and the second magnet has an exposed surface with a south pole. The first housing also includes a retaining wall with an opening. The clasp has a magnetic locking arrangement wherein the second housing is removably secured within the open recess of the first housing and the north pole of the first magnet is magnetically attracted and aligned with the south pole of the second magnet. The clasp also has a mechanical locking arrangement wherein the second housing is fit into the second recess of the first housing and a connector of the second housing is placed in the opening of the retaining wall of the first housing.

Abstract: A magnetic jewelry clasp is described that includes a first body member having a magnet that defines a first magnetically attractive surface. The clasp includes a second body member that has a magnet that defines a second magnetically attractive surface that magnetically connects to the first magnetically attractive surface to define a first locking arrangement of the clasp. The clasp includes a safety catch that has a first protuberance that is adapted to open and close the safety catch. The safety catch includes a second protuberance that fits over the end of the second body member which defines a second locking arrangement of the clasp. The Safety catch is designed so that it will function whether the two bodies are brought together with both right side up or with one up side down. It includes a pair of side panels that prevent misalignment of the first and second body members.

Abstract: A jewelry clasp is provided with two bodies, each having a surface magnetically attracted to the other. The clasp has a safety catch that includes an arm hinged to one of the bodies. The arm may be swung about the hinge between an open position and a closed position. A further magnetic attraction keeps the arm in the closed position until opened with a fingernail. A retaining wall may extend generally perpendicular to a direction of elongation of the arm to block a path that the other of the bodies could travel if the bodies were to separate from each other while the safety catch is in the closed position. If desired, a male connector may be inserted into a female connector to prevent separation of the bodies from each other. The male connector and female connector are usable in tandem with the retaining wall, or in lieu thereof.

Abstract: A jewelry eyeglass holder having a loop that is movable about a hinge between hidden and exposed positions. In the hidden position, the loop is behind the rear of the design portion of the jewelry and in the exposed position, it hangs downwardly. Eyeglasses may hang from the loop in a balanced manner. The jewelry eyeglass holder also has a pin for securing the same to clothing.

Abstract: A convertible earring comprising a rigid earring body having a surface on one side and an ear attachment on the other side, with the surface having a raised portion and an adjacent decorated portion. When the earring body is attached to one ear by the ear attachment, the raised portion hides the adjacent decorated portion behind the raised portion when viewed from the front of the ear. But when the earring body is attached to the other ear, the adjacent decorated portion is visible in front of the raised portion when viewed from the front of the other ear. Thus a pair of such earrings is convertible to a more decorated pair of earrings by simply switching each earring from one ear to the other. The raised portion may be a step, an outwardly curved surface or a wall. Or the surface of the earring body may have a decorated raised portion and an adjacent but hidden differently decorated portion so the earring is convertible to a differently decorated earring by switching the earring from one ear to the other.
