Elvish-Inspired Character Rings

Jens Hansen designed and made The Movie Ring for the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies.  We also designed and made the silver chain worn by Frodo Baggins and Vilya, ring of Elrond. 

We did not make any other ring or jewellery for the movies.  However, we have created our own version of the so called rings of power worn by other elven characters from descriptions given in the books.  We call these "Elvish-Inspired Character Rings".

Elvish-Inspired Character Rings – Forged from Story, Shaped by Imagination

The Elvish-Inspired Character Rings collection is a tribute to the timeless characters of Tolkien’s universe — brought to life through Jens Hansen’s own artistic lens. 

While our workshop officially crafted The One Ring™, Frodo’s silver chain, and Vilya (Elrond’s Ring) for the film trilogies, we imagined what the other Rings of Power might have looked like — and shaped them into fine jewelry worthy of their namesakes.

Each design in this collection draws from the spirit and symbolism of beloved characters and actors:

  • Our Ring for Cate – a graceful, nature-reflective piece inspired by Galadriel

  • Our Ring for Sir Ian – timeless strength with subtle presence

  • Our Ring for Viggo – blending two-tone metals to echo inner conflict and honor

  • The Ring of Hugo – structured, commanding, and unmistakably refined

  • The Dark Lord’s Ring – a shadowed, limited-edition creation imagined from darkness

Crafted in sterling silver, yellow, red, or white gold, and platinum, each ring balances Elvish elegance with modern design. These are not movie props — they are original artistic interpretations, handcrafted in our Nelson, New Zealand workshop.

Tolkien fans, fine jewelry collectors, and lovers of symbolic design all turn to this collection for its unique blend of storytelling and artistry. 

Every piece is crafted to reflect the essence of its namesake character — not as a replica, but as a wearable interpretation rooted in Jens Hansen’s design language.
