Spring ring clasps are a popular type of jewelry fastener known for their simplicity, reliability, and lightweight design. They are commonly used in necklaces, bracelets, and anklets, particularly for delicate chains and lightweight jewelry. Here's a detailed description:

What is a Spring Ring Clasp?
A spring ring clasp is a circular, hollow metal ring with a small, spring-loaded mechanism inside. It features a tiny lever or tab that, when pressed, opens the ring to allow attachment or removal. When released, the spring mechanism snaps the ring closed, securing the jewelry.

Key Features of Spring Ring Claps
1. Design:
   - Circular shape with a small gap that opens when the lever is pressed.
   - The lever is often textured or ridged for better grip.

2. Mechanism:
   - Spring-loaded for easy opening and closing.
   - The spring inside ensures a secure closure.

3. Materials:
   - Typically made from metals like stainless steel, brass, or sterling silver.
   - Often plated with gold, rose gold, or rhodium for a polished finish.

4. Size:
   - Available in various sizes, usually ranging from 4mm to 10mm in diameter.
   - Smaller sizes are used for delicate chains, while larger sizes are suitable for heavier jewelry.

5. Durability:
   - Lightweight and durable, but best suited for lightweight to medium-weight jewelry.
   - Not recommended for heavy or bulky pieces, as the mechanism may not hold securely.

1. To open: Press the small lever or tab to compress the spring, creating a gap in the ring.
2. To attach: Slide the jump ring or loop of the jewelry into the gap.
