Description
I lost my Le Creuset 5-quart enamel cast-iron Dutch oven in Flame orange yesterday around 3pm. It's a big orange pot, about 14 inches across, with the lid and a knob that feels a tad loose, plus a tiny glaze chip on the rim you can feel if you rub it. I use it for family Sunday stews, and it was a gift from my mom, so it means a lot to me. I last had it outside the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk, along Ocean Boulevard near the SkyWheel entrance, or possibly near the Pavilion—it's easy to miss in the crowds. If anyone found it, I’d be really grateful to get it back.

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.
