Why can’t you buy solid copper clasps anymore?
The American jewelry industry once had its center on the east coast, namely Rhode Island. At that time you could get any parts in any metal you requested. Production has shifted overseas with only a very few chains and findings still manufactured in the United States. Solid copper findings are becoming as scarce as hen’s teeth.

Celtic Copper sources imported jewelry findings through an American plating company that does the finishing here in the US. Our jump rings are made in the USA of solid red copper.

Listing is for one 3-piece clasp set (1 clasp, 2 rings) or multiples of the 3-piece set. Jewelry and other items pictured are for illustrative purposes only.
