Please note that rulers are not true to size, but are true in relationship to the item. This is because computer monitor resolutions vary widely, making it very difficult to create a true lifesize representation on screen. Please refer to the numerical dimensions specified for each piece for the most accurate information about sizing. Also please be aware that some minor size variation is normal for handmade pieces.

VNAC657 · Bronze Tulip Hook & Eye Crimp Clasp
Size (mm): Length: 25 Width: 4 Height: 4 (show inches)
Description:
Bronze Tulip Hook & Eye Crimp Clasp. Easy to use, Lovely Design. SOLD PER SET. When closed with pliers around cord, tiny teeth inside the "petals" grab the cord for a secure hold that looks clean and neat.
TIP: When using with silk cord or ribbon, be sure to tie a small knot in the cord, then slip that into the clasp using the tip of your round nose pliers or the end of a paper clip. Then pinch the "petals" closed upon the knot. Read detailed instructions. For a little more security add some Hypo Cement in the tip. Works well on our thin silk cord and the silk ribbon. Also works well with deer hide leather cords. Width (4 mm) is the measurement of the base of the tulip shaped dome. Length (25 mm) is the measurement from end to end (where you would crimp down on material). Our bronze is imported from Italy and is a high quality alloy of copper and tin.
