WETA Workshop Polystone - The Lord of the Rings Trilogy - The Golden Hall of Edoras Environment

Weta Workshop was intrinsically involved in the design and physical effects manufacture for all three films of The Lord of the Rings™ trilogy.

It takes hundreds of hours to design, sculpt, model make, mold, and paint the prototype for each new Middle-earth piece. Whether it be a prop replica, beautiful environment, or iconic character, we treat our collectibles with the same level of care and attention to detail that we bring to our film work.

In the heart of the Rohan™ rises the Golden Hall, its thatched roof gleaming under sunlit skies like a crown upon the hill of Edoras.

Above the hall’s doors, overseeing the hillside, shines a golden sun motif, carved upon the weathered wood. Adorned with rearing horses of the Rohirrim™, the columns stand tall and strong, bearing the weight of Rohan’s ancient lineage.

This collectible captures the spirit of the Golden Hall with an artistry and authenticity that only those with an intimate knowledge of the original could achieve.

Painstakingly designed to mirror every carved beam and sunlit stone, this standalone piece brings to life Rohan’s iconic hall, meticulously crafted with the finest details. From the regal horse motifs etched upon its boughs to the golden wheat-thatched roof crafted to reflect the hall’s legendary gleam, every element has been faithfully recreated.

This is a tribute to Rohan’s timeless heritage, made by a team of artisans with decades of experience in bring Middle-earth to life.

Features:

• Depicts the Golden Hall, Meduseld™, wherein King Théoden™ ruled
• Digitally sculpted by Weta Workshop veteran 3D Artist Charlotte Key
• Features incredible details and accuracy, with unerring fidelity
• Created using reference to original film stills, satellite imagery, historical geographic data, set construction drawings, and on-set photography.

“We consider ourselves very fortunate when we tackle an environment like this because, of course, we’ve got access to such an amazing wealth of reference. Whether it’s geographical data from satellites, whether it was the lidar that might have been taken at the time, [or] photographs from set and set construction drawings.”
