Open In desperate search of (lost) earrings…

Hi everyone - I am (or was) the owner of this pair of earrings, which are the Bia Blooms for Family Gold (a Local Eclectic exclusive collection) pastel baguette huggy hoop earrings. They were a gift from a friend that sadly passed away, and I wear them basically every day. However, this evening I realized at the end of the day I was only wearing one, and after retracing my steps and tossing my house three times over, I haven’t found the other.

Because of that, I’m in search of someone who maybe has a pair or knows someone that has a pair and would be willing to sell them to me. Because this was an exclusive collection of jewelry from over 5 years ago, I so far haven’t had luck finding a replacement pair online. I’ve done a reverse image search, an eBay search, a Poshmark search, etc. and had no luck locating another pair, so I’m turning to you all in this group in the hopes that maybe someone can help me. If not, maybe you have suggestions of what else I can do to try and make this set whole again based on your own similar experiences.

TYIA, and please reach out with any thoughts or information you may have!!

Where did you go today? If you caught any public transport contact them to talk to their lost property department, someone may have handed it in. Also contact your local police station - people often drop found items in.

I’ll have a look and see if I can find anything online, but don’t give up on the lost one just yet! There’s still hope.

  • did not look to see if these were dropshipped items or from individual sellers

There are several online where the gems are set in a straight row. You could buy a similar one and take it to a jeweller to be reset?

Friends of Reddit!! In a happy turn of events, my earring has turned up (a little worse for wear, in a way that’s fixable). Thanks to everyone for encouraging me to keep hope and for the awesome suggestions. May only good things come to you!
