Hey guys,

I've misplaced an earring, and want to get a replacement.

I can't wear costume jewelry (anything other than 14K gold or titanium makes my skin react), and had some 14K gold wires bent into earring shapes . . . I've been wearing them for a few years now, but I've lost one.

I'd like to buy another set of gold wire earrings to hang costume jewelry off of.

Do you have any idea where I can buy some?

If they go cheap and try to sell me 10K, my ears will break out in a few days like they're infected.

The ones I bought in Canada only cost me $25CDN.

Thanks.

The street off Insadong in Seoul is full of jewelers. They should have something.

I have a similar experience with earrings, although I realized it was a nickel allergy.

You could also coat earring posts with clear nail polish - this helps to prevent the reaction.
