Lost ring - what do I do?

I lost my gold signet ring. The next day I retraced my steps throughout the day and emailed every place I had been to see if they had found it.

I got a haircut that day and the salon responded saying they had it! It was safe and I was welcome to come in anytime the next day.

I rock up the next day to retrieve it, with chocolates in tow. The guy crosses the room to get it but it's now not there apparently. He asks his colleagues if they have seen it and genuinely seems upset that he can't find it. He searches for about 20 mins. I gather that he is more likely to find it if I'm not staring him down so I leave the chocolates and ask him to get into contact if he finds it. He seems really worried and apologetic.

Three days later, I've heard no response. What do I do? Do I have any rights in this situation. The rings value is about £170 and I'm devastated to have lost it.

Thank you all.

You can claim on your insurance or your can tell the salon owner you are going to report it as theft. The latter might make it reappear miraculously.
