All Jens Hansen custom made jewellery is original, precious and crafted 'to be worn'. This simple philosophy rewards us with creative pieces that we can all embrace, afford and love, which was also why New Zealand filmmaker Peter Jackson asked Jens Hansen to design and make the Movie Ring* for his film versions of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings™ and The Hobbit™ books.

Victoria University - Medal Commission

The Victoria University Academic Excellence medal is a distinguished symbol of scholarly achievement, crafted with exceptional attention to detail. Only five of these exquisite medals were produced, each meticulously fashioned from sterling silver and lavishly finished with a thick plating of 18ct gold.

The design draws inspiration from the timeless elegance of Roman coins, lending the medal a classical and refined aesthetic. On the reverse side, each medal is personally engraved with the name of the recipient, commemorating their outstanding Academic Excellence Award for 2004. This medal not only honors academic distinction but also serves as a lasting testament to dedication and intellectual accomplishment.
