Lahn-Schroeder said she believes the ring was lost near mile 10, in the area of Central Park South. ABC 7 reported that she and her partner searched for it but did not recover it.
During a Wednesday meeting, Big Apple Jewels owner Zak Nissanov said the store would create a replica at no cost. "What we'd like to do is make you a replica of the exact same ring that you lost without any pay," Nissanov said, as per the report.
The post added that the ring began as a tie clasp and was later turned into a ring by a female relative after the original owner died. The piece had since been passed down through multiple generations.
The jeweler said the replacement could help the family continue that tradition.
