Handmade wedding rings and unusual jewelry for men from one ring creator Jens Hansen

Great video of Visit to Workshop Featuring Jeweller Ben Clark

World Traveller is a 20min show broadcast every Saturday night on the Shanghai Documentary Channel. In Feb-Mar 2009 they visited the Nelson region of New Zealand and saw us at our studio workshop.

Someone has posted a brief clip of the show on YouTube showing the guys in the studio hard at work, with a good session with jeweller Ben Clark as he makes a Movie Ring.

Halfdan Hansen

In the 1950s Jens Hansen brought a style of jewellery design from his native Denmark to Auckland and wowed the fashionistas.

He later moved to Nelson and most recently found new fame when he was commissioned to make the rings for the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Since his death in 1999 his sons have been running the business and for the first time in 40 years Halfdan has bought Jens Hansen jewellery back to the city where it all began.

Halfdan Hansen showed New Zealand Television TV3 Sunrise show some fine examples of his father's designs.

How much does a One Ring weigh?

Short video I shot in our workshop - shows two Newline Cinema authorized movie merchandise One Rings (one from South Africa and one from Australia) compared to the original Jens Hansen Movie Ring. As they say a picture paints a 1000 words!
