The toggle clasp is made using a vintage glass loop and a small stick pearl with a tiny green CZ as an accent. The pearl slips through the opening of the vintage rectangular glass loop as if it had been made just for that purpose, and the toggle holds the bracelet in place and will not slip out. The rectangular glass loop, even though it is on the border between antique and vintage, leaning towards antique, is tough enough to handle this job.
