'Their sole purpose was to fill the hole (I hate the way a pierced ear with no earring in it looks) and they performed the job perfectly'
Photo: Courtesy of retailer A few years ago, I bought a 1945 gold peso in Mexico City with the intention of coming home, finding a matching one on eBay, and turning the set into a pair of earrings. Which is exactly what I did. I instructed my neighborhood jeweler to solder hooks on the back and to make sure one would be worn tails-side-out and the other heads-side-out. He did what I said and charged me $40. I picked them up a week later on my way to JFK and put them on in the cab.
This pretty boring story is why until a few years ago I never changed my earrings or took them out — not once in 11 years — and was honestly the happier for it. For those 11 years , I wore tiny hoop earrings meant for newborn babies. They were 14-karat gold and bought on Amazon in the “girls fashion earrings” section for $20. I didn’t fret about them one single time. Their sole purpose was to fill the hole and they performed the job perfectly.
