This chain bracelet is made from 18 gauge substantial wire. The circle lobster claw clasp on this bracelet is super cool! But, it can be tricky to operate at first. For best results, use your thumbnail to push directly on the clasp gateway to hold it open. Then, fish for the bracelet end link while resting your wrist against your leg or a table surface. To remove the bracelet, do the same thing, push directly on the gateway and jiggle the bracelet link out of the clasp. You’ll need to make sure the bracelet link is on the side of the gateway that will open. It takes a little practice but you will be off and running after a few trial runs.
