Safety clasp for a necklace

A necklace system including a clasp and a string, the clasp comprising:

• a first part;
• and
• a second part,
• the clasp being transitionable between an open condition and a closed condition;
• the first and second parts including surfaces that are configured to be releasably attached to one another by a magnetic connection;
• the first and second parts being magnetically attracted to one another, the closed condition being when the surfaces of the first and second parts are positioned on one another and the open condition being when the surfaces of the first and second parts are spaced apart from one another, wherein only the magnetic attraction of the first and second parts relative to one another inhibits the clasp from transitioning to the open condition, and wherein application of a force meeting a threshold value that effects an angular movement of the first and second parts relative to one another results in the clasp transitioning to the open condition;
• and
• the first and second parts each including a throughhole extending lengthwise along an axis extending along a length of the first and second parts, the surfaces of the first and second part being generally transverse to the axis, the throughhole being configured to receive and secure a portion of the string therein.
