Description
I lost my white ceramic table lamp from West Elm yesterday around 3pm. It’s a 24-inch tall lamp with a clean white ceramic base and a navy fabric shade, trimmed in brass. I was strolling along St. Johns Avenue, near the Five Points Starbucks, and it must have slipped out of my car door when I stopped to tie my shoes. The base has a tiny glaze crack near the bottom and a small worn felt pad on the bottom that makes it stand out. It’s sentimental to me because my mom gave it to me for our first apartment, and I’d really appreciate getting it back if anyone finds it!

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.
