I have a nickel allergy so titanium is my first port of call for jewellery, though my wedding ring is zirconium and some of my old, pre-allergy stuff is now plated with rhodium.

niobium is a happy metal for nickel allergies. feels like tanium and doesn't trigger allergies.

Source - my wife breaks out from nickel in jean rivets but niobium is good enough for piercings

Useful info, thanks!
