Clasping Together

Waystone has three types of clasps available for its Lodestar Necklaces: lobster, toggle and hook and eye. Each clasp has a different appearance visually. But what if you, like me, have some hand flexibility and mobility issues?
Obviously, you could order a necklace with a chain long enough to slip over your head and avoid having to clasp or unclasp the necklace altogether. But that limits your choices for wearing a necklace to accent your attire. You could also recruit the assistance of a helpful significant other to help you with the clasp. But it is sometimes difficult to find good, reliable help when you need it.
So that leaves you struggling with clasps to put your jewelry. Personally, I have turned the necklace around to the front to fasten the clasp in front so I can see what I am doing, but I have spent so much time in refastening the necklace because it is upside down using this technique. There are some devices available to help with fastening clasps, but I have never found them to be useful.
Of the three types of clasps available; the toggle and hook and eye clasps are the friendliest for those of us with hand mobility issues. Please don’t hesitate to contact us at hello@waystone.com if you have more questions!- Tags: FAQ
