Appeal to trace lost rings of sentimental value last seen being posted at Market Harborough post office
A family are appealing for help to trace lost rings of sentimental value which were last seen being posted at Market Harborough’s post office in November last year.
The rings belong to Nicholette Landrum’s late mum, and Nicholette gave her daughter Charlotte a choice of rings to choose for her wedding ring.
Charlotte moved to Market Harborough with her fiancé in May 2025, before the couple got married in November.
They moved to the United States earlier this year, and Nicholette explained that Charlotte wanted to return the rings safely to her before they moved overseas.
"Before my daughter moved to the States she wanted me to have the rings back to keep safe, so she posted them on November 17, 2025 at the post office on Adam and Eve Street by recorded delivery for £12.25," Nicholette told the Harborough Mail.
"They did not leave the post office as when you put in the tracking number it says it is still processing.
"My daughter went to the post office where they were posted and she said the people that run it were very helpful and couldn’t find them and were confused as to why they weren't getting tracked."
Charlotte also had an unsuccessful trip to the sorting office in a bid to find the rings.
The rings were left to Charlotte by Nicholette’s late mum, who passed away from leukemia five years ago.
Nicholette, who lives on The Wirral, added: "The rings in question are not that valuable, but these were my mums and my daughter is very upset over it, as they have sentimental value."
Charlotte has been unable to get compensation from Royal Mail, and the family are no closer to finding out what happened to the rings in the photo at the top of this article.
Anyone who recognises the rings is asked to contact The Harborough Mail with more information by emailing [email protected]
