I found two sets of these in my stash, minus whatever card or label they might have originally had. I want to use them on my fitted English gown (which is now FINISHED... except for the clasps, huzzah!), but could really use at least 2 more sets. I've looked at JoAnn, Hobby Lobby, and halfheartedly on etsy without luck. Hoping the eagle-eyed RFers might know where I can find some more!

They're the typical size of small cloak clasps (about 1" high by 1.5" wide for the pair), in a bronzey-coppery finish, with brownish red stones. They also have a maker's mark on the back--a J inside a circle--but I don't recognize it.
Anyone have leads?
Thanks so much!!

I really like that hook up clasp
I like them too. Hard to find these with cabochon stones in them....I wonder who manufactures them?
I would prefer to order directly instead of going through a third party*
*I spent way too much on some rosary chain I needed by ordering through an etsy vendor. I was charged $5.99 for a yard, then found the same chain (too late) for $1.99 yard.
Huzzah! They are from JHB, and they're a Hancock exclusive. Milord found me three more sets at our local store! (That's probably all they would normally stock.) There's a similar clasp that's a JHB JoAnn exclusive; I used it years ago on my brown Boticelli dress--that one is bronze with mother-of-pearl cabochons, and I think it's actually a little prettier. But this one was a dead match to the colors in my duck-green-and-bronze fitted gown.
Thank you! If Hancock's has them then I can order directly from the store.
