The 'little One' - a Narrower & Lighter Version of the Replica Ring

Red Gold & Smooth Polished

Just like in the films only smaller.

The Jens Hansen Ring that was filmed for The Lord of the Rings™ movies was originally made in 18ct yellow gold. It weighed approximately 17 grams (more than 1/2 oz.), is 2.7mm thick through the band and measures about 7mm tall (just over 1/4 inch) when laid on its side.

This 'little One' measures just over 5mm wide and is about 2mm thick through the band. Making it a perfect Elvish themed wedding band for the smaller hand.

  • 18ct red gold - maximum gold content and lifelong durability.
  • 14ct red gold - a mid-price option that is exceptionally hardwearing & the minimum quality considered as real gold in many countries.
  • 9ct red gold - the best solid gold option on a budget.


Custom Engraving & English-to-Elvish

Our laser engraver can handle any message, pattern, pictures or symbols desired so long as you are using standard fonts, or can provide a two-tone (e.g. Black & White) image file AND there is enough room for your message to fit on the ring. We CANNOT for legal reasons engrave the same elvish script that features on our licensed The One Ring designs. Other messages in elvish or any other language are ok, of course.

About The World’s Most Famous Ring


This Elvish Love Ring is a recreation of the “Movie Ring” that played the role of the “One Ring” in the “Lord of the Rings” movie trilogy by Peter Jackson.

The design is based on how one of Jens’ sons, Thorkild, described the ring as a child: “Simple, heavy band.”

Since the first movie premiered in December 2001, the Movie Ring has been the most recognizable ring in the world.


Timeless craftsmanship


Jens Hansen trained many of New Zealand’s leading contemporary jewellers and his pieces are seen in museums, galleries, and royal collections alike.

His works were known for their craftsmanship and design quality and have lasted generations. Many of his early designs are still just as relevant as when they were first sold decades ago.

Thanks to its elegant, yet recognizable shape that fits every finger, the Movie Ring is perhaps the most timeless piece he ever designed.


Make the ring your own


The original Movie Ring was 7mm wide (just over 1/4 inch) and made of 18ct yellow gold.

Your Elvish Love Ring can be an exact replica, but you can also choose from three other widths (3mm, 4mm, and 5mm), four other materials (white gold, red gold and platinum), and three other gold qualities (9ct, 14ct, and—yellow gold only—22ct).


Your own Elvish engraving


The engraving is often what truly gives a ring its meaning. You can choose your own Elvish (or any other language) engraving for both inside and outside the ring.

The Elvish Love Poem fits perfectly on the outside of the ring:

One ring to show our love,
One ring to bind us,
One ring to seal our love,
And forever to entwine us.

    Hallmark and makers marks

    What are hallmarks and makers marks?
    These are the small symbols typically stamped inside the band on a ring that indicate the quality and type of precious metal used, and the jewellery makers name and origin.  For us this normally includes our Jens Hansen signature hallmark.  It is generally recommended to retain these unless you have a special reason not to. As they are indents they cannot be felt when the ring is worn on the finger.
