New collection of interchangeable necklaces and clasps

Eva Dorney September 26, 2019

Autumn is fast approaching here in Windy Arbour and with it we are delighted to announce the launch of our New Season clasps and strands. We’ve travelled widely to augment our collection with eye-catching new multistrand necklaces in grassy green chrome diopside, navy blue iolite, sky blue amazonite and of course sparkling grey labradorite. We’ve also added new clasps in crystalline grey pyrite, vivid green chrysoprase and vibrant turquoise to name a few.

Fine gemstone, pearl and precious metal necklaces handmade in Dublin by goldsmith Eva Dorney

Clasped is a range of fine gemstone, pearl and precious metal necklaces handmade in Dublin by goldsmith Eva Dorney.

Clasped represents a new innovation in the Irish jewellery, which allows you to customise your necklace by introducing a different clasp to suit your outfit, your mood or the occasion.

The system works using a tiny bayonet fitting (like you'd see in a lightbulb only much much smaller) so that with a push and a quarter turn one clasp can be removed and another introduced. Worn to the front, the clasp is both the closure and the feature of your necklace.

Your first clasp and strand is the beginning of a collection that will grow over the years and with each new addition, be it a strand or a clasp, the potential combinations multiply. Meantime, existing beads can be restrung with the interchangeable system, eliminating the need to double up on classics like pearls, while adding a modern twist to proceedings.

You can shop the range online at Clasped.ie or you can call in person and play with the hundreds of possible combinations at our Dublin showroom.
