Claim 15:
16. A method for assembly of a jewelry clasp, the method comprising:
1) providing a clasp shell enclosing a spacing, the clasp shell having a first opening for slidably receiving a first end of an elongated member of a piece of jewelry for releasably securing the first end to the second end of the elongated member;
2) positioning a spring in a bottom part of a push button;
3) positioning the push button through a second opening of the clasp shell so that the push button is slidably received in the spacing through the second opening of the clasp shell, so that the button is slidable between a releasing state and a locking state and can be pushed into the releasing state when a push force against a spring force provided by the spring is applied to the push button, the push button returning to the locking state by means of the spring force of the spring when the push force is released, wherein the button has a hole for receiving the first end of the elongated member when the first end is received through the first opening of the clasp shell, wherein the button comprises a stopper for engaging and locking the first end of the elongated member when the first end is positioned in the hole and the button is in the locking state, the stopper releasing the first end of the elongated member when the button is in the releasing state, the stopper selectively engaging an inclined surface of the elongated member to thereby lock the first end of the elongated member to the clasp; and
4) positioning a magnet in the spacing, the magnet exerting a magnetic force which, when the first end of the elongated member includes a material magnetically attractable by the magnet, pulls said first end of the elongated member through the first opening and into the hole of the push button when said first end is positioned in said first opening.
