One Ring

When to this jewelry shop.. Jens Hansen Gold & Silversmith on Saturday. Is located at Selwyn Place, Nelson.
This is where the world most famous ring is made at!! The Lord Of The Rings Movie Ring!It juz a tiny winnie shop but most of their ring looks uniquely gorgeous and classic!Jens Hansen the designer for the One Ring passed away on August 1999 . Today Jehns Hansen contemporary Gold & Silversmith continues under the creation of Jen’s son Halfdan and Thorkild Hansen, second generation gold and silversmith. Jens and his son Thorkild then had to make the Ring scaled for different scenes and sized to suit its various owners. We all know that there is only 'One Ring', but for the film over forty variations were needed. From smaller solid gold versions that perfectly fit Hobbit's fingers, to the one seen in the prologue spinning and turning through the air. With a diameter of a massive eight inches this ring obviously couldn't be made of solid gold, so steel was used, it was cut on a lathe and then plated.
The cheapest the One Ring that you able to get is NZD175 for sterling silver. The most expensive the One Ring should be the 950 Platinum which cost NZD 5,750.00.
