         12 . The jewelry product of  claim 11  wherein each end head has a hexagonal shape. 
     
     
         13 . The jewelry product of  claim 9  wherein the separate one and other threaded shaft portions have a gap defined therebetween. 
     
     
         14 . The jewelry product of  claim 8  further including a sleeve disposed about the partially close loop and slideable to cover and uncover the pivot pin, and wherein the sleeve is long enough to cover the pivot pin in a closed position and is slideable over one of the loop portions to uncover the pivot pin and to enable the loop to pivot open. 
     
     
         15 . The jewelry product of  claim 9  wherein the separate one and other threaded shaft portions have a gap defined therebetween and wherein, in the open position of the loop the gap is larger than in the closed position thus enabling decorative nuts to be threaded onto either of the separate one and other threaded shaft portions. 
     
     
         16 . The jewelry product of  claim 8  wherein the loop is in the form of a bracelet. 
     
     
         17 . A jewelry product that is to be worn by a user and comprised of a loop member that has opposite respective loop ends, each of the loop ends supporting an end head with an internally threaded opening, the respective internally threaded openings being constructed and arranged to be in axial alignment, and a threaded main shaft engaged with the threaded opening of the respective end heads. 
     
     
         18 . The jewelry product of  claim 17  wherein each end head is hexagonal in shape. 
     
     
         19 . The jewelry product of  claim 17  wherein the threaded main shaft is comprised of a single one-piece threaded main shaft. 
     
     
         20 . The jewelry product of  claim 17  including one or more decorative nuts disposed between the respective end heads and engaged with the threaded main shaft. 
     
     
         21 . The jewelry product of  claim 17  wherein the threaded main shaft has a length that is comparable to the distance between the respective end heads with opposite ends of the threaded main shaft threading with both end heads. 
     
     
         22 . The jewelry product of  claim 17  wherein the loop member is comprised of separate loop portions. 
     
     
         23 . The jewelry product of  claim 22  further including a pivot pin that connects the separate loop portions and that enables the separate loop portions to open and close. 
     
     
         24 . The jewelry product of  claim 23  further including a sleeve that is disposed about the pivot pin and slideable to cover and uncover the pivot pin. 
     
     
         25 . The jewelry product of  claim 23  wherein the sleeve is long enough to cover the pivot pin in a closed position and is slideable over one of the loop portions to uncover the pivot pin and to enable the loop to pivot open about the pivot pin. 
     
     
         26 . The jewelry product of  claim 8  wherein the respective internally threaded openings of the end heads are constructed and arranged to be in axial alignment. 
     
     
         27 .
