Does anyone know what this type of fastener is called? I'm looking for some and I don't know what to search for. The picture isn't great as I enlarged it from on in Projects, but I hope it is recognisable.

I found them on ebay,had to order from China. I forget what they are called. I searched high and low for them and got my order. They are in the same bag they arrived in and I never did get around to using them. But when i do I know where they are.

Thanks to all of you for the answers - now I know what to look for! It was great to come home after a trying day to find them all.

Now just what are you up to?????????
Hmmmmmm! The mind boggles. LOL!!!

Well, that didn't work, did it? LOL

Here are a couple links to show you the type of latch in your photo. At least they will give you more ideas for the terminology to search. (For the 2nd link - scroll down just about halfway. They come in various designs and colors.)
Hope this helps.

Hi Sue. It's called a bag clasp. You can get them here in th UK from Jaycotts
Is this for your latest creation? Regards Suet x

Dennis hit the nail on the head, it's a suitcase latch! Love and blessings Chris

Hi, search 'suitcase latch hardware uk' will bring up a number of suppliers. I had also added a link below.

Hey there Sue! Don't suppose it's this sort of thing??? I have search a little but so far this is the closest thing. It reminds me of a fasteneer I had on my school bag when I was in primary school. He he.http://www.etsy.com/listing/12511...
Good luck with your search!
