Now that she has it back, Shiomi has a heart-shaped silver brooch set with amethyst that Maiyoi-chan given to her. It dates to the Tempo Famine. And is an important plot device in volume three.
No one else, to my knowledge, carries anything that fits that description.

There are some things that almost fit this description.
Tomo has a cracked picture of him and Ume at an anime street fair. It was one of the few things he rescued when cultists tashed his home.
He also has a bullet cartridge that almost hit him. Instead, lodged in his pack. He intends to get it inscribed with his name as a protective talisman. (The bullet with your name on it. My beta reader didn't understand.)
Shiomi should buy Ume something. It's the kind of thing she would do, and Ume would be sure to carry it. Poor Ume is dense that way, or she would buy Shiomi something like that. There is no "probably" about whether she would carry it.

And into my WIP.

Shiomi: If I’d had money, I might have stopped to buy Ume a token of my love. I saw a marvelous silver ring with a red stone that I would have loved to buy for her. I bet she would never take it off. That was a romantic thought.
