What it is
A bar that passes through a ring and rests across it; easy to fasten, relies on the weight of the piece to stay closed, so not for light chains.
Finding and chains: The working parts: clasps, posts, backs, jump rings and settings. A piece is only as good as its findings.

Other finding and chains
Clasp & Lens describes materials from the public record and does not appraise, grade or test pieces; what a listing states is the supplier's statement. If a piece causes a rash, take it off; a reaction that spreads or blisters is a doctor's question, and sunglasses are no substitute for impact-rated eye protection where that is required.
