LOTR Rings??

Does anybody know where you can buy the rings from???, Im not talkin about the "real" one. A replica will suffice.

And does anybody know where you can get any swords? I saw them on a website going for over 300 bucks, looking for somethin cheaper.

I think you can get the rings in nearly every jewelry-shop... if not, a lot of internet shops sell them in hundreds of different versions.

Swords... hm, for example www.elbenwald.de (but German) or otherlandtoys (quite expensive).
Some fantasy-shops also sell them.

yes ebay has tons of swords from lord of the rings, and the ring, and they have so many amazing stuff, there is a arwen costume on there im itching to get, but my mom would kill me, since ive went on a rampage bidding stuff from there, hehee, they have..a elvish love ring that im dying to get and i love the inscription on it, they have all kinds of rings, its amazing, i awe ebay!!! *hugs ebay*

so the best way to get swords and rings and other stuff from LOTR is to go to ebay

alot of stuff is high priced bidded on

the only elvish love ring i found that wasnt high priced, was like 4.99 and it doesnt end until 2 more days

which is why i think the medallion (from POTC) that i bidded on for just 2 dollars will get higher and someone will outbid me on that, because it doesnt end until 2 more days

i am anxiously awaiting my ring..and i hope to get it soon, i ask everyday when my mom or dad get the mail, im like: IS MY RING IN YET?!!

hehe, im anxious for my ring!!!!!!!!! (and the will turner picture that is signed by orlando bloom that i won as well)

hehehe so YES GO TO EBAY! hehehe! you will be amazed at the things they have

History on Weaponry/Jewelry

as i was looking for information on imdb about viggo mortensen, i found this post in the forums about him. it talked about aragorn's ring and where you could buy a copy:

Subject: Aragorn’s Ring
Reply: April181907
Message: If you are the kind of fan who digs this sort of stuff, there is a big backstory behind this ring. This ring has been passed down from eldest son to eldest son back to Elendil, and back further to the kings of Numenore. Not only that but it was the ring that Beren (if you watch the FotR extended version, he is the one Aragorn sings about just past the Midgewater Marshes) was wearing when he cut a Silmaril from Morgoths crown in the First Age. (If this is all greek, you should consider reading the Silmarillion) Perhaps coolest of all, it is the ring the Finrod Felagund (Galadriel's long dead brother) gave to Barahir (leader of one of the three clans of noble men who aided the elves) in the First Age. This is about as much history as any individual item in the Middle Earth has, and it makes this ring about 2500 years older then the 'one ring' which is causing all the problems in the movie, and at least 7000 years old itself. It even has the potential to have been made in Valinor (the land of the gods the elves sail to when the leave Middle Earth) putting it in the company of virtually nothing by the time of LotR, though this is never said with certainty. Finrod was celebrated for his smithing ability, which is a good rational for how cool the ring in the movie looks.
And even if you don't get into all this, its a nice ring.
Date: Friday, September 5
Link: http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0001557/board/nest/3014883

thought that was interesting. feel free to post the history behind the other rings, swords, and so forth seen in lotr movies/books. (post a pic if possible to find)

later, Sodapop

Hadhafang
Sword of Arwen

Arwen's sword is called Hadhafang which means Throng-cleaver. It once belonged to the Elven princess Idril, who wed a mortal man and bore Earendil, the father of Elrond who in turn was father to Arwen. Before Arwen's birth Elrond wielded Hadhafang at the end of the second age of Middle-Earth, during the Last Alliance of Elves and Men in the great battle against Sauron. Later his daughter Arwen used Hadhafang when she aided Frodo in his escape from the Ringwraiths. Inscribed on the blade are runes in the Elven language of Sindarin that say aen estar Hadhafang i chathol hen, thand arod dan i thang an i arwen. Which translates to this blade is called Hadhafang, a noble defense against the enemy throng for a noble lady. The original inscription included the last line Idril i hel en aran Gonddolen, which translates to Idril, daughter of the king of the Hidden Rock (Gondolin). It was dropped from the finished prop due to a lack of space. There is an intentional pun in the inscription Ð the Sindarin translation of noble lady is Arwen, so in effect, the blade claims to be for Arwen, even though it was made for her grandmother.
