A diamond solitaire pendant is precious, so you want to be certain that once it's around your neck, it'll stay there. To make sure you don't lose your necklace, jewellers take extra care to create strong clasps that are easy to use yet robust and secure. The most common type of clasp used on 9k and 18k gold solitaire pendants is the lobster clasp, so-called because it resembles the claw of a lobster. This spring-loaded clasp is very unlikely to come undone but is also easy to use and not too ‘fiddly’ to open and close.
