Neodymium jewelry is unique among magnetic jewelry in that it is both claspless and without strings. What holds the pieces together are the ultra-strong magnets. Neodymium magnets have been used in industrial applications for years where high strength and light weight, small volume magnets are required. Known as rare earth magnets, they're often used in products you may already own. Some examples are computer hard disks, microphones, professional speakers, headphones, and guitar pick-ups. In the last few years, neodymium has found yet another use, and is becoming popular as magnetic jewelry. This is due partly to the fact that they are light weight and highs strength. In addition, they end up being a unique way to design jewelry. Often coated in nickel, these magnets are incredibly strong and bind to each other so that the jewelry requires no strings. They can be opened at any location and so they also require no clasp. They're sold as a magnetic necklace, bracelet, or anklet, and are easily resized by removing or adding pieces. All of this makes them both interesting and flexible. The nickel coating adds a protective layer which holds up much better than either gold or silver plating. The silvery shine of the nickel coating also makes for an industrial look. This jewelry is modern, but also classy and elegant. As you can tell, neodymium jewelry is a very modern, very strong, but relatively light weight piece of magnetic jewelry. It's also fun to own.
