Tortoiseshell glasses with silver fern engraving
Description
Lost my tortoiseshell Warby Parker glasses this afternoon around 3:15pm near the Lancaster Central Market on Market Street, by the coffee carts. They’re rectangular, with a small scratch on the right lens and a tiny silver fern engraving on the left temple. The case is a black zip case with a grey lining and I probably left it near the entrance by the bus stop outside the market. They’re sentimental and I really miss them—these glasses have stuck with me through long study nights and work shifts. If you found them, I’d be grateful to get them back and can swing by the Lost & Found desk at the market to pick them up.

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.
