Where can someone get accurate rings from LOTR?

You think the serpent heads on replica Barahir Rings are roughly done?

Here's a pic of the real thing:

Almost all the replicas of the Ring of Barahir are highly idealized and much less rough-looking than the original. Although I like the original's look more.

EDIT: And if you'd like a One Ring that's highly accurate yet not the super-expensive solid 14h gold version, get in contact with Jens Hansen, send them an e-mail. They can make it out of a different metal and then gold-plate it for a significantly cheaper price, and all you need to do is tell them what you want.

Hey Jaman, where did you find that pic? I've never seen that before. And you say that is the real version worn by Aragorn in the movie?

And I can attest to the Jens Hansen version of the RoB. I just got mine last week.
I chose the palladium instead of white gold (white gold requires a kind of "treatment" over time to keep it white) and 18kt gold for the accents.
Getting palladium instead of white gold kept the price very close to $2K (and no taxes!).

So now I've got a Jens Hansen Vilya and Ring of Barahir.

I'll post pics in the near future when I get a camera that does better close-ups.
 
Hi there! Thread resurrection again, sorry, lol. I've been obsessing over this ring for a few months now, and having attempted making other replicas of the simpler rings of power, I thought why not try making the ring of Barahir.
I used as many screenshots from the 4K movies as I could find, and also had a bit of help from the below video, which was posted by Dallas Poll who was a jeweller on the original films. I believe he is willing to make custom versions of the ring, but obviously I can't speak for him. His version is definitely the most accurate and authentic replica of the ring available anywhere, I would say:


I'm an amateur jeweler and this isn't really the most accurate replica out there, but I tried my best to correct some of the mistakes seen in the more common replicas available, notably the Noble one.
I cast it in sterling silver with brass inlay for the flower patterns, and it is set with a green cubic zirconia.

Hope you like it!

I like those versions so much. They are much closer to this version which I have been trying to find a replica of. I don't really like the look of the one from The Noble Collection and I'm on the fence about the Jens Hansen one. I wish I could actually find someone selling one that was closer to yours or the image I linked since they are more the style I would be interested in wearing regularly

TheFedora Thanks so much! Yes, it is a shame that most of the replicas available don’t have that rough look and texture of the original prop.
I personally think the noble collection one is probably the closest one in terms of shape and dimensions, though I think many will disagree.
I do like the version you linked, and in general I enjoy looking at all the other “deliberately” less accurate ones out there. It’s just a lot of fun seeing all the different interpretations of the design that was described in the book.
I do plan on making other versions in the future, so I will definitely let you know if I do.
