Gold-tone teardrop earrings with turquoise stones
Description
I lost my gold-tone teardrop earrings with turquoise stones yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Grand Avenue in Laramie, by the University of Wyoming campus. They're from the Kendra Scott Elle line, about 1 inch long, with a small turquoise stone and a delicate swirl pattern on the back. One earring has a tiny scratch near the hinge, and the turquoise stone has a faint natural vein—easy to spot if you look closely. They have huge sentimental value; they were a gift from my grandmother, and I really need to find them. If anyone found them, please drop me a note here—I'll happily meet in downtown Laramie 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.
