From your question, I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. I'm guessing by "without using a closure" you mean not having a clasp of any kind. So hopefully this answers your question.

If you are trying to make a solid loop (like a napkin ring or long necklace), I would thread both ends of the wire through a crimp bead/tube in opposite directions, then crimp it and finish with a crimp cover. You want to leave a little bit of give in the piece as well, or else it's going to be stiff and uncomfortable to wear.
