Lola from Brooklyn

Maybe you picked it up; maybe someone you know picked it up; maybe you heard someone talking about finding a necklace; maybe you work in the area and it was handed in by a passer-by... I would be really grateful for any information as it has huge sentimental value. If you think you know something please get in touch. Thank you :)
