Help with The One RIng

Hi guys, first time post here so apologies if it's in the wrong place.

I'm after a ring for myself from the LOTR movies, I've found one I like the look of and want to know if it has a specific name, it's not the usual gold 'One ring'.

http://imgur.com/ivtowZx - I've searched tungsten and various other things but annoyingly I can't find any others that look similar.

It's also on Ebay but I prefer to have a look at different types and then buy the right one!

Thanks for any help.
 
The most accurate ring you'll get is the Weta ring, as mentioned. It is made in New Zealand by Jens Hansen. Jens (who started the company) designed the ring for the film.
They have affordable tungsten carbide versions that are extremely cool to have as display pieces (with or without inscription), or they offer solid metal versions with no inscription if you're wanting to wear it regularly; for gold, be prepared to pay. It is worth its weight, that's for sure.

I own multiple versions of the Jens rings, and they're a great bunch of people to deal with if you're ever in New Zealand.
So, for screen accurate, hit up Weta NZ/Jens Hansen, for less accurate licensed versions, go just about everywhere else - it just depends what you're after!
 
I got a ring off of ebay, "internally lit by LED's". But the thing is an inch and a half in diameter! :(

Anyone know where I could get a ring with carvings deep enough to be "backlit"? I have some pot-metal rings, thought about acid etching the script, then dremelling out the back and filling with clear resin (and a few orange LED's). Unless there's already a product with deep carvings. They do make rings filled with luminescent material -- I have a British Pringles (potato-chips) promotional ring that glows GREEN, and have seen some for sale with FLUORESCENT orange (needs a blacklight to work). Luminescent isn't good enough; I need it to fade "on", and then fade "off"...
