Lost Contacts

How do I recover my contacts from a lost phone?

I tried to use the recover option on iCloud but nothing showed up.

Contacts are not stored locally on an iPhone. They are synced to an email account that you had Google, iCloud, AOL, Exchange, Outlook, Yahoo or any Other

How many Contacts account (email client server) you have?
What is your default Contacts Account?
Which email account you are using to store Contacts?
