How does the idea of getting married in Middle Earth sound? What about pitching a tent in the Shire, and celebrating with Hobbits? Saying your vows in front of the elves and the waterfalls in Rivendell? If these sound like the way you want to wed, Manly Bands may be able to get you one step closer.
Once you’ve found the one love to rule them all, it only makes sense to pair it with the One Ring to Rule them all. Put frankly: it’s your destiny.
To celebrate the end of the first season of Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (reportedly the most expensive TV show ever), Manly Bands has announced its officially licensed Lord of the Rings series, featuring a solid gold facsimile of the original trilogy’s One Ring, as well as designs inspired by fan-favorite characters including Gandalf, Frodo, and Aragorn.
“Designing these rings in accordance with the lore of the original Tolkien story was a very complex process,” Manly Bands director of products Christopher Bright said in a press release.
“In order to truly represent ‘The Lord of the Rings’ characters, we chose unique materials like moss, bowstring, and lava rock to balance accuracy and style. What we have created here is something that any true fan will appreciate.”
Manly Bands offers high-quality wedding bands for men who prefer to keep a lower profile. Past styles like The Cowboy and The Marksmen made Manly Bands the no-brainer choice to design a series of wedding bands based on the Lord of the Rings series.
“Now couples can own the rings from their favorite fantasy world – without having to fight a dragon!” says Manly Bands co-founder John Ruggerio.
Check out The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power striking collection of designs below, and pick your favorite (if you can only pick one). Then: we suggest you join the Fellowship, and fast. These rings aren’t going to be around for long. If Tolkien’s books are any indicator.
The One Ring, $1,595
The Lord of the Rings doesn’t exist without the One Ring. It’s safe to assume that anyone even vaguely familiar with the series knows of Frodo’s journey from the Shire to Mordor to destroy it. Now, Manly Bands is offering you a chance to intercept him before he has a chance to throw it in a volcano with your own handsome,14-karat solid gold One Ring – the crown jewel of the brand’s impressive new collection.
The Gandalf, $395
If you have always thought you could pull off a cloak and staff, why not complete the picture with Manly Band’s Gandalf-inspired ring? We can’t promise that this titanium ring will imbue you with magical powers, but we can confidently say that it will compliment your wardrobe. Who knows, it may just cast a spell on people.
The Frodo, $695
Manly Band’s two-toned Frodo ring draws on the colors and vibrations of the warm, peaceful Shire, the Hobbit’s carefree hometown. Moss and teak inlays compliment the dark charcoal band and suggest a lightness to this ring. It’s not quite as dressy as some of the others in the collection, but then, as Frodo learns time and time again, sometimes the opportunity to relax is as good as gold.
The Aragorn, $695
Being a wizard is cool and all, but how about being a cowboy in the wizarding world? Set yourself apart from your peers with this black zirconium Aragorn-inspired ring. Keep a little bit of Aragorn’s sword steel on you at all times, with the sterling silver inlay layered on top of a lowkey charcoal gray.
The Legolas, $595
Put your ear to the ground. Do you hear something? It might’ve been the sound of jaws hitting the floor from the look of Manly Band’s Legolas-inspired ring in cobalt chrome. Like the elf himself, The Legolas ring is a striking, surefire hit.
The Gimli, $595
Loyal, hardworking, unflashy, and a little bit funny. Do these adjectives describe you as they do Gimli, the dwarf warrior of The Fellowship of the Ring? If so, you may fancy The Gimli. Made from black zirconium and adorned with movie-accurate gold etching, The Gimli ring is bursting with character.
The Ringwraith, $495
Indulge your dark side with Manly Bands’ Ringwraith-inspired ring in black zirconium. This wide, rich charcoal gray ring exudes mystery and darkness, like the wraiths themselves, and would be a nice compliment to anyone who finds themselves rooting for the villain a little more than they do the hero – or anyone who has sophisticated taste.
The Gollum, $495
Luckily, you don’t have to look like Gollum to wear a ring inspired by his ghoulishness. The dark zirconium, inlaid with a cosmic blue carbon fiber design, reminds us of the deep, dank caves where Gollum cut his teeth. Ready to make it official with your Precious? Who better understands that than Gollum?
The Sauron, $795
Manly Band’s final Lord of the Rings-inspired design took its cues from the series’ Big Bad himself, Lord Sauron, with this dark, brooding ring. Made of black zirconium with genuine lava rock and glow powder inlays, The Sauron ring recalls the volcanic terrain of Mordor, and matches all of the intensity.
