Sterling silver teardrop earrings with sapphire accents
Description
I found a pair of sterling silver teardrop earrings with sapphire accents this afternoon around 3:15pm on the sidewalk outside the Guthrie Theater, along Gold Medal Park near the Mississippi River in Minneapolis. They’re about 1.5 cm long, with a delicate teardrop shape and a tiny clear crystal perched at the top. The backs have a tiny engraving that reads 'Mira' inside the post, and there’s a faint scratch on one setting, easy to spot if you’re looking for them. They’re in good condition overall, no bends. If you’re the owner, tell me where you last wore them or describe the engraving to claim them—we can arrange a quick meet-up in downtown Minneapolis.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
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.
