While I liked the first version, the excess wire from the seed bead that I wrapped around the bare tigertail looked sloppy. And once I had it all apart, it meandered off into the above as I started to put it back together. This is not unlike how I write.

I'm going to do another necklace with the seed bead wrap, because I thought that was really neat. I have these awesome small square iridescent beads which will look really neat as a choker with a string of seed beads spiraled around it.

Beautiful!

*peers more closely at the clasp* What sort of clasp is that? It looks very elegant.

I love the sound of the choker.

It's called a toggle clasp. They can be incredibly simple, like this: http://www.artbeads.com/clasp1-sp.html, or they can be incredibly elaborate like these:
