I lost my sunburst violin yesterday around 3pm near the Ringling Museum on Bay Shore Drive in Sarasota. It's a full-size acoustic violin, spruce top and maple back with a warm sunburst finish, ebony fingerboard, and a tiny dent on the lower bout that's easy to spot if you know what to look for. The bow has a faded red wrap and there's a small rosined streak on the chin rest. This violin has huge sentimental value to me—it's a gift from my grandmother, and I really need to get it back before my gig this weekend. If you found it, please drop me a note here in the app and I'll come pick it up as soon as I can.
I lost my navy blue North Face parka yesterday around 3pm outside the CVS on Bee Ridge Road in Sarasota. It's a medium puffy coat in good condition, with a small embroidered dolphin near the hem and a red paracord zipper pull where the original broke. The inside pocket hides a faded photo from last summer. This jacket is my everyday go-to for chilly mornings, and it has sentimental value since it was a gift from my grandmother. If anyone found it, please get in touch — I'd be incredibly grateful to get it back.
Hey everyone, I’m really worried—my silver Yamaha student flute went missing yesterday around 3pm. It’s a 26-inch silver-plated flute with a small dent on the foot joint and a faint scratch along the lip plate. The hard-shell case is black with a red velvet interior, and there’s an engraving of the initials 'P.P.' on the head joint. It was a gift from my aunt and means a lot to me, carrying sentimental value I can’t replace. I last had it near Selby Public Library on 1st Street in downtown Sarasota, in the Sarasota-Bradenton area, and I might have wandered a bit during a detour along Main Street; if anyone found it, I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back. You can email me at [email protected].
I lost my black Sony WH-1000XM4 wireless headphones yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on St. Armands Circle in Sarasota. They were tucked in a small black travel case, with a red USB-C charging cable sticking out, and there’s a noticeable dent on the left ear cup plus a blue sticker with the initials 'PP' on the inside of the headband. I use them every day for work calls and commuting, and losing them has me stressed—they were a gift from my sister and helped me stay focused in noisy places. If someone found them, I’d be really grateful to have them back.
I lost my blue Penguin Classics edition of Moby-Dick yesterday around 3pm outside Barnes & Noble at University Town Center in Sarasota. It's a cloth-bound hardcover with a gold spine. Inside, there's a small orange Post-it with my initials 'A.R.' written on it on the inside cover. The corner of page 87 is dog-eared, and the bottom edge shows a light coffee stain. It was a gift from my grandmother and still means a lot to me; I’m really hoping it finds its way back. If you found it, drop me a note in the app or email [email protected].
I found a navy knit scarf this morning around 9:15am in front of the CVS on Tamiami Trail in Sarasota. It's a medium-weight scarf, about 60 inches long, with a subtle silver thread woven through and a tiny silver anchor charm stitched near the end. There’s a small label that reads 'Everly' tucked into one corner. The scarf is in good condition, just a bit wrinkled from being on the ground. It looked like someone might be shivering and rushing by, so I grabbed it to make sure it didn’t get lost again. If you lost a scarf like this near downtown Sarasota, message me and we can arrange a quick meetup near the library on Main Street or CVS.
Found this framed abstract painting this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind the Ringling Museum on Ringling Blvd in Sarasota. It's a 24x30 inch canvas with bold blues and golds, housed in a matte black frame that has a tiny nick on the bottom edge. The back has a white label reading 'EK-23', and there are a couple of light scratches along the frame but the artwork itself looks intact. I picked it up to keep it safe while I tried to figure out where it belongs, and I hope its owner sees this and can describe the label or the piece. If you recognize it, send me a message and we can arrange a local meetup in the Sarasota-Bradenton area.
I found a phone this afternoon around 3:15pm in the parking lot behind the CVS on Manatee Avenue in Sarasota-Bradenton. It’s an iPhone 12 Pro in midnight blue with a cracked bottom edge and a small dent on the corner. It lives in a blue silicone case with a tiny sticker on the back that says 'A7'. The home screen shows a sunset wallpaper and a few family photos, so I figured someone must be missing it. If you’re the owner, I’d be glad to meet up and verify ownership so it can go back to you.
I found a teak mid-century coffee table this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the CVS on University Parkway near the UTC in Sarasota-Bradenton. It's about 48 inches long and 20 inches wide, with a lower shelf and slim tapered legs. The finish is warm honey teak with a few light scratches on the top and a small dent on the front left leg. There’s a brass plaque on the underside of the shelf that reads 'Made in Denmark'—a neat clue that might help someone identify it. If this belongs to you, tell me the distinguishing feature you notice (the dent or the plaque), and we can arrange a safe pickup spot nearby.
I found a white ceramic coffee mug this morning around 9:15 am in the parking lot behind the Whole Foods Market on Fruitville Road, right in Sarasota in the Sarasota-Bradenton area. It’s about 3.5 inches tall with a glossy glaze and a blue floral pattern circling the rim. The handle has a tiny chip on the outer edge, and there’s a faint coffee stain on the inside near the lip. On the bottom there’s a small faded stamp reading 'Harbor Lane'—a nice identifying feature that might help. I figured someone might be looking for it after their morning shop, so here it is. If it’s yours, we can meet up nearby to return it.
