SLANE Large Pearl Carousel Charm Toggle Bracelet

A toggle bracelet is simply a bracelet with a toggle type clasp.  With this style of clasp, a bar or ornament on one end of a bracelet is inserted into a ring on the connecting side.  Often times, the toggle clasp itself  is a primary decorative feature, with the look requiring the ring and bar or ornament to be larger than other clasp styles, such as with the more common lobster clasp.  The reason I particular like this style of bracelet, is that with age, my ability to see small clasps has declined.  Bracelets with minute clasps now require assistance in order for me to put them on.  The larger toggle style is much easier to connect.  Several fine jewelry designers, including SLANE and Tacori, offer bracelets with this style of clasp.  Regardless of age, the toggle bracelet is appealing and a wonderful choice.
