Inspired by The Hobbit, the immortal work by J.R.R. Tolkien, comes the Arkenstone of Thrain, created and treasured by the Dwarven Longbeards clan of the Lonely Mountain. The Arkenstone was described by Thorin Oakenshield as "a globe with a thousand facets; it shone like silver in the firelight, like water in the sun, like snow under the stars, like rain upon the Moon!". When Bilbo Baggins discovered the Arkenstone on the top of Smaug's treasure horde, "it was tinged with a flickering sparkle of many colours at the surface." The stone filled his tiny Hobbit hand, yet he was able to secret The Arkenstone away in his deepest pockets. The Arkenstone replica is made from fine K9 Crystal which has been treated with an Aurora Borealis plating, giving the the orb a magical glow. The stone exhibits a variety of color depending on what type light its under. The Arkenstone replica comes nestled on a black velvet pillow inside a Dwarven crafted wooden treasure chest. The runes stamped on the name plate on top of the chest read Arkenstone, written in the same Dwarvish runes found on Thorin's Map. The Arkenstone measures approximately 59 mm (2 5/16") in diameter - big enough to fill a Hobbit hand, but small enough to hide in a deep pocket. The chest measures approximately 4 1/8" long, 4 1/8" wide by 4" tall (104.3 mm x 106 mm x 100 mm). The Arkenstone replica and Dwarven treasure chest weigh just over 1 pound (approximately 18 oz.).

Nice size, great wooden box, crystal ball is a let down
Expected a smoke and mirrors type of product, was impressed bye the wooding box, great quality, the crystal (Arkenstone) left a lot to be desired.In the right light , this looks impressive.For the price, I'm not so impressed.Still a great LOTR artifact :}

In awe
I love mine, it's so beautiful especially in the light. I'm in awe every time I open the box. Box is definitely nice with latch and cool top piece. And cushion inside. This piece is actually more how the Arkenstone is described in the book, I think everyone expects it to be a giant opal lol. Anyway, I adore it.

It got one star for the cool box, for one I wouldn't give more than 25 bucks for it that looks nothing like the real arkenstone whatever that is it is not what you claim and to charge 89 dollars for it is ridiculous I will never buy this,

Not the real Arkenstone
The box is nice,but wasn't sure if the stone was genuine.So when I could I showed it to Thorin, he showed no interest,therefore its a fake

FAKE, FRAUD, DO NOT BUY
Don't know if you all realize the photos say @BJS Inc, 2011 as in 2011 when these pictures were taken? This isn't trademarked legitimate LOTR replica. If you look at the seller you'll also realize they sell a bunch of knick knacks unrelated to trademarked legit replica's.I'll give an example http://www.amazon.com/Arkenstone-Officially-Licensed-Hobbit-Earrings/dp/B00KM8GIG0 How does that have anything to do with LOTR besides a dragon claw and seriously fake gem for $500 If you've bought this product. You've been had... Seriously do some consumer investigating.

I haven't bought it personally. The box looks lovely, but that's not the Arkenstone. I know where to buy those crystals for 20$.

not a true stone
This is not the true shape of the stone. The movie shows it more oval than sphere
