About this deal

The momentous Council of Elrond takes place in the courtyard outside Elrond's chambers, with an enormous tree overlooking the scene. The setting is immediately recognisable here and the use of colour is brilliant, as the gathered chairs are the only medium nougat features anywhere outside, ensuring their clear visibility. The ground floor is luxuriously adorned with 69 printed tiles, matching those from the courtyard outside. This pattern looks fantastic and precisely reflects the onscreen location, with light bluish grey tiles framing the decorative centrepiece. Unfortunately, the star-shaped design overlaps the edge of the model, so finishes rather abruptly.

Which is why I'm not buying it day one. I will wait for it to show up somewhere else with a discount. The steady transition between bright green, lime green and flame yellowish orange foliage looks gorgeous too, especially against the colourful roof. The model also includes a taller Cypress tree that exhibits completely different building techniques. I was uncertain about this tree in official images, but its upward-pointing leaves are superb, arranged around three-branch cross axles. Sand green wheel arches form ornamental features between the outermost columns. The table inside is laden with lembas bread and salad, recalling Pippin's accessory. The whole structure is mounted on another circular base and angled in relation to the main building, further enhancing this version of Rivendell. After all, the town is constructed in harmony with nature, so avoids grid patterns altogether. The columns appear fragile, although some are surreptitiously reinforced using 1x1 round plates with bars, which connect them to the walls. A dark blue banner hangs behind the columns and resembles several from the films, featuring silver stars. Perhaps a couple more could have been included to balance the interior.Kathryn is an avid fan of the Lord of the Rings, and this collection of Silhouettes was created as a work from the heart, to honor her favorite film trilogy. The neighbouring structure retains the patterned roof from Elrond's chambers, although features different bands of colour. The columns underneath are absolutely stunning and I appreciate the continued integration of sand green pieces, which are ubiquitous across Rivendell. The archway looks superb, with a statuette and two undecorated birds creating a decorative frieze on top. The art shown is a print that has been shrunk down to fit an 11x14” silver frame with a decorative profile. The original Nine were hand cut, and fit on 16x24”. Encompass the legendary adventure of the Fellowship from the Lord of the Rings with this epic metal silhouette. We use a plasma-cutting table to produce this one of a kind rustic, minimalistic steel that is 40 inches wide and 9 inches tall. Furthermore, the bedroom also includes Bilbo's writing desk, where he completes the Red Book of Westmarch, recounting his adventures. The quill in the inkwell looks great, while the desk is adorned with scrolls underneath. The teal-upholstered chair is neatly constructed and provides some additional colour, but the reddish brown frame looks odd, surrounded by dark orange and medium nougat furnishings.

Overall, I’m very impressed and I’m sure that I will scrape together the cash to buy this (at some point…). Remarkably, a unique accessory has been developed to represent Elendil's shattered blade and this weapon looks absolutely perfect. The distinctive hilt is instantly identifiable and the uneven break looks realistic too. Hopefully the reforged sword taken up by Aragorn, dubbed Andúril, will appear in any future The Lord of the Rings sets.Featured in a pure white wood oval 5x7” frame. Gandalf’s hair and beard are completely white, notating his change in status after his return from death after battling the Balrog. In the book, it was Glorfindel who assisted Frodo at the Ford of Bruinen. This powerful and ancient Elf was the Lord of the House of the Golden Flower, so his ornate cream frame with gold details, the golden flower pin on his cloak, and blonde hair are all strong signifiers of who this portrait is. Glorfindel is an honored addition to this collection. 5x7” wood oval. The rear wall of the bedroom displays another mural, recreating the image of Isildur preparing to slice the Ring from Sauron's finger. Sauron appears delightfully menacing in minifigure form and the attention to detail on this painting is outstanding, even including a blue flag that also appears on the original mural, shown when Aragorn and Boromir first meet. The frame looks lovely too.
