This item has been missing since I moved into my house in 2003. Every now and again I think of it and do a search. It's something especially dear to me, and I'm too weak to spend much time searching. Any insights will be appreciated. It's a small heart shaped trinket box about3 inches in diameter. It's white china with a crackled finish, and some delicate pink hearts on the lid. The box was a gift from my youngest daughter for Mother's day (before my husband passed) Inside I kept a ring that he gave me with a jade, opal, and coral stone....as well as an 18 carat gold "box link" chain with matching ankle bracelet. the 18 ' chain had a broken clasp, and held my small diamond heart shaped pendant that he gave me as well. I kept these with me while my furniture was in storage for a month while I waited for the seller of my house to find an apt. after our closing(long story). I stayed at my daughters house in her guest room, and had my van packed to the brim with all of my clothing and personal items too precious to chance putting in storage. The things that were in boxes went into their attic and my clothes, and dry goods (foods) went into their pantry and into a special portable wardrobe I bought because of their lack of closet space. In the guest bedroom I had my luggage set Some packed with clothes...and on the dresser I had my jewelry box and this Small trinket box I'm now missing. It HAS to be somewhere in this house. I've searched through every box, piece of luggage, makeup case. pocket book and anything else that traveled here with me from her house. IT'S GONE !!! If you guys get any hits on it let me know. I have the distinct impression that it's somewhere in my walk in closet but can't figure where. All of my bedroom furniture was in storage, and I no longer have my Van. (I tore that apart searching before I surrendered it to GMAC! I'd love to find them while I'm still alive to do so!!
