I was browsing Etsy this afternoon and saw some gorgeous handmade findings from Kira Nelson, aka OriginalBeadwork -- I especially liked this striking sterling silver S-clasp accented with a single bead wired into the center. Such a pretty design! And her spiraled earring wires are amazing too.
She makes her findings in all different metals and styles and does custom work and wholesale orders as well.
Browse "handmade clasp" or "handmade earring wire" within the Supplies category for hundreds more pieces to choose from. Do you have any favorite suppliers on Etsy to recommend? I'd love to add more to my favorites!

I agree, Kira's work is very very nice! There's a couple of other artisans that are concentrating on handmade findings at etsy as well...just search "handmade findings".
I've also been on etsy over about a year now and am concentrating on handmade findings and am showing the love through Feb 14 by offering matching endpins with every pair of handmade Safarisister earwires (sorry for the shameless plug :o)
I offer all my findings in:
14KT Yellow Gold Fill
14KT Yellow Red Fill
14KT Yellow White Fill
Sterling Silver
Fine Silver
Copper
Brass
Most designs are available in square or round wires and can be oxidized at no additional fee.
I'm also working on "Metal Minute" videos to share my metal and digital art skills with other crafts folks -- stay tuned!
