The Washoe County Sheriff's Office recently recovered what appears to be a partial antique tea service as part of a stolen property investigation. Sheriff's Office staff believe the set may be of great sentimental value to someone based on the characteristics of the pieces and the manner in which it was packed.

Now, the Sheriff's Office is hoping to locate the rightful owners of this set so that we may return it to where it belongs.

Photos of the tea service are attached to this press release. Anyone who recognizes this tea set and can help return it to the rightful owner is asked to contact the Sheriff's Office front desk at (775) 785-3001, ext. 7.
