WETA Workshop Polystone - 13 Apple Orchard Hobbit Hole

From New Line Cinema, Peter Jackson and Warner Bros. comes J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit, brought to the big screen in an epic trilogy.

Weta Workshop was thrilled to return to Middle-earth once again, contributing design, specialty props and specialty costumes to all three films.

This gorgeous little environment is an exacting miniature replica of the movie set that can be visited at Hobbiton in Matamata, New Zealand. It was designed by the same artists and craftspeople who worked on the movie.

Scattered among the grassy hills of Hobbiton like a purse full of lost coins, the round doors of many dozen hobbit-holes shine in bright, summery hues, each home to a hobbit or family of the little people.

As diverse as the rosy-cheeked hobbits themselves, every smial, as hobbit-holes are known, reflects the unique personality of its inhabitant and nestles into the hillside amid a sea of lush greenery.

Ripe red apples dangle thick amid the boughs of number 13's trees, framing the pretty lemon-yellow door of the home of Bilbo and Frodo's cousins the Sackville-Bagginses. Yet for all their home's charm and bounty, the sour-faced Lobelia and Otho have eyes only for Bag End, and peer enviously out of their window at the Hill.

Each an individual dwelling, the Hobbit holes lend themselves splendidly to creative placement in your cabinet. With a flat back and shallow depth of only 2.16 inches (55mm), they can be placed on mantles, cornices, shelves and in windows.
