WHICH Baltic Amber teething necklace?

[Shades]

Okay... So I've come across three distinct types of necklace on the web... not counting the difference between the beads/chips....

I'm talking clasps...
Would like to hear from those who've got necklaces for their babies with magnetic, plastic screw (eg. Inspired by Finn) or silver parrot-and-loop (eg. Selkie Designs)... They each claim to be the safest... and claim the others are inferior... Does anyone have any experiences with any of these specifically in a situation where the safety feature was required? ie. Do they break/pull apart as advertised? Has anyone purchased one kind only to change their mind upon examining it?

I haven't had any experience with the 'safety feature' being used, but we have a plastic screw clasp and have been really happy with it.

the way I see it is the silver parrot clip would have no give in it at all so I really would steer away from that kind. The magnetic sounds good in theory, but I imagine it would be fairly easy to get it apart meaning curious little hands could fiddle, leave it undone and then the necklace drops off and gets lost. But I haven't seen one IRL so have no experience with these kind.

Good luck!

I've got a Selkie Designs and while I haven't had to use the safety feature, I'm quite happy with it. I can see exactly how it would work, and I think it's enough give to stop it being dangerous, without it falling off or coming to bits all the time.

My only problem is that the clasp is a little scratchy on dd's skin.

I think it is probably just personal choice.... and of course they will all claim that other brands and clasps are inferior!

Go for the type that looks nicest to you!

We've not had any incidents...

I'd say magnetic clasp would be safest. Inspired by Finn say that the lighter the amber, the more salicylic acid it contains, so they say they're the most effective.

Also I think to get one that isn't too big for bub. The string can stretch a bit over time, and you really don't want it to be getting caught on things - even though that's what the magnetic clasp is for, you don't want to have to test it.

I heard the same thing about the cloudy ones- cloudier the better Not that it mattered, everything was sold out except rainbow when I got mine.
