Navy ceramic table lamp with brass neck
Description
I lost my navy ceramic table lamp with a brass neck yesterday around 3pm near the Grandin Theatre on Market Street in Roanoke. It’s about 20 inches tall, with a glossy navy ceramic base and a brass neck, and the shade is a navy linen fabric that’s a little frayed at the edges. There’s a tiny crack along the left flank and a small moth-eaten spot near the top edge that’s noticeable when the light hits it. This lamp was a gift from my grandmother and really means a lot to me; it helps tie my living room together after a long day. If you found it, please text me at (540) 220-7890 or email [email protected] — I’d be so 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.
