Description
Lost my red Le Creuset 4-quart Dutch oven yesterday around 3pm in the Harris Teeter parking lot on Greenville Boulevard in Greenville, NC. I chose it for the glossy red enamel and the sturdy weight, with a black knob on the lid, and there's a tiny chip on the outer rim where the glaze has worn away. I can recognize it by the bottom stamp of my initials PD and a light coffee stain inside from a recent recipe. It was a gift from my grandmother, and it carries sentimental value. I really need it back; if you found it, please message me.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
