If you haven't heard of this gal, she's Connie Fox and she's something of wire wrapping guru. Here's a link. http://www.conniefox.com/Education/WireSkills/SClasp.htm
Here's an example of a button clasp. http://www.jewelrysupply.com/index.php?main_page=1/proj_b407.html
Along the same line, I saw in a high end store, 3 MM tourmalines used for the loop, but I can't remember what they looped around. A center drilled stick pearl would work if it's long enough.
And of course, I love my silver nautical monster spring rings, 12MM. Pearl Paradise has a similar clasp in the Sonora in 14kt.
