Background
As the “guts” of jewelry, findings are the components that
make jewelry wearable and include items such as jump rings, clasps, wire, toggles and spacers.
To open and close a jump ring, hold with a pair of pliers in each hand. You can open and close the ring by moving the pliers back and forth in a parallel motion.
