Abstract: A clasp for use in making jewelry comprises an elongated hollow tube having an opening at least at one of its ends and an elongated, Z-shaped slot having a first section extending from the open end of the tube to a first intermediate location, a second section extending approximately circumferentially from the first intermediate location to a second intermediate location, and a third section extending from the second intermediate location to a third intermediate location. Flexible decorative strands of material, having enlarged ends larger than the slot, can be slid into the opening of the slot and into the third section, where they remain unless deliberate manipulations are undertaken to remove the strands.
