After losing the necklace, Mathilde visits the jeweler whose name is on the box of the necklace Madame Forestier lent her. His response, "I didn't sell that necklace madame. I only supplied the box," foreshadows the necklace is not what it seems..... not the valuable piece Mathilde believed it to be.
