Gold Calotte/Clam Hooks

Length: 3mm
Width: 2mm
Colour: Gold Plated
Quantity: 10 Calotte hooks

These gold calotte clam hooks are made up of two connected metal cups that have a hole between them and a hook. Also know as clam shells (because the two cups face each other like the shell of a clam), these gold gold calotte/clam hooks are used to hold onto the knot at the end of a strung piece of jewellery, such as a beaded necklace. Then the clam hook is used to wrap around a clasp or jump ring. Bead tips are available in base metal, sterling silver, gold-filled, and gold.
