A jewelry clasp is provided with two bodies, each having a surface magnetically attracted to the other. The clasp has a safety catch that includes an arm hinged to one of the bodies. The arm may be swung about the hinge between an open position and a closed position. A further magnetic attraction keeps the arm in the closed position until opened with a fingernail. A retaining wall may extend generally perpendicular to a direction of elongation of the arm to block a path that the other of the bodies could travel if the bodies were to separate from each other while the safety catch is in the closed position. If desired, a male connector may be inserted into a female connector to prevent separation of the bodies from each other. The male connector and female connector are usable in tandem with the retaining wall, or in lieu thereof.
