Description
I lost my distressed white farmhouse coffee table yesterday around 3pm near the Reading Terminal Market on 12th Street in Philadelphia. It's a rectangular 48-inch table with a single shallow drawer in the middle and black metal X-legged feet. The top has a few light scratches and a small circular dent on the left front corner; there's a tiny carved heart on the underside of the drawer pull. It was a gift from my grandmother, and it holds sentimental value to me. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back—this table is the anchor of my living room.

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.
