Advice on finishing necklaces..

Hi

Just a query about finishing an illusion style necklace. Is there any advantage/disadvantage to using a parrot clasp and jump ring, or a parrot clasp and one of those flat little necklace tags with the two holes in them? Or is it just personal preference?

Thank you

Audrey

What is a "parrot clasp"? I've never heard that term before.

Ahh, lobster clasp is the name - I think parrot clasp is maybe a slightly different shape, but the theory is the same...scroll down on this link to see a pic...

Ohhh, okay. Lobster claw I've heard of. Parrot I hadn't. Long day.

I just did a quick Google. Seems lobster claw and parrot clasps are different - maybe not much but................
