Postal officials are helping Scotland Yard solve the mystery of the disappearance of a £5,000 pearl necklace. A £1,000 diamond bracelet that was in the same parcel mailed to Mappin & Webb at their Regent St. establishment, was delivered safely. The jewelry was posted to the Regent St. house by Bravington’s, the chain jewelers, from their King’s Cross address. The necklace was sent for restringing and the bracelet for repairs. When the parcel was opened at Mappin & Webb’s only the bracelet was inside. There is no sign of the parcel having been tampered with. The necklace contained 140 graduated pearls.
