ABSTRACT:
A system for facilitating the return of a lost piece of jewelry or diamond. A micro-label bearing a numeric code which identifies the owner of the jewelry and an alphanumeric telephone number (e.g., 1-866-RETURN ME), is affixed to the jewelry. Alternatively, the message may be discreetly micro-engraved or laser inscribed. A database compiled by the service provider cross-links the alpha-numeric code to the personal information of the owner. The message encourages the finder to call the telephone number to access the service provider and report the numeric code. The service provider determines the identity of the owner, and informs the owner that an item of jewelry bearing his or her code has been found. The service provider actively mediates the exchange by arranging a three party call to determine the most suitable method for returning the jewelry to the owner, and by suggesting a reward to encourage the finder to initiate the return process.
