  • Publication number: 20150101364
    Abstract: This present invention relates to jewelry clasp protection caps. The jewelry clasp protection caps comprise two halves of covering clamshells forming an oval shaped inner chamber to allow the jewelry clasp to easily fit into the oval shaped chamber. In an embodiment, the two halves of covering clamshells are connected through an over-center spring-loaded hinge. The covering clamshells can open and close with the spring-loaded hinge. In another embodiment, the two halves are held in a closed position by engagement between a protrusion on one half and an engaging groove on the other half. The two clamshell members have at least two smooth recesses in their edges to form openings that allow the jewelry chain or chains to pass through the clamshell members. Different designs of the clamshell members can be provided to the jewelry wearer to match their different jewelry.
