POLICE want to trace the owner of these two rings found in a bag bought in Christchurch.

An 11-year-old girl found the rings inside a Cath Kidston bag bought in Lavender and Bay gift shop in Christchurch on Sunday January 19.

PC Dave Williams said: “The young girl was very concerned that the owner of the rings would be upset at their loss and immediately returned to the shop having discovered them.

“The proprietor of the store has no idea how they came to be in the bag and is keen to see them reunited with the person who has lost them.”

One of the rings is a white gold solitaire style ring with a white stone and the other is a pale yellow wedding band.

PC Williams added: “I would like to commend both the young girl and the shop proprietor for following the right course of action by contacting us.

“Anyone who has any information that can help us identify the rightful owner of this jewellery should call 101 and ask to speak to me.”

Contact 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
