The NSA revelations keep on coming, and if you’re feeling desensitized to the whole thing it’s time to refocus and get your game face on for 2014. Because shit continues to get real.
This Lord of the Rings dining room set is crazy awesome and perfect for anyone who is obsessed with Tolkien. The quality and workmanship here is stunning. This room would be your precious.
The One Ring chandelier is the focal point. Plus even the chairs have the White Tree of Gondor carved on them. Nice. The Eye of Sauron is also on the back of the chairs and the carvings along the side and near the bottom. Then you have the ring repeated on the bottom of the table. Apparently, the table was made by a now defunct company called Middle Earth Furniture (I am not making that up.)
If you are invited to dinner at this house, “You shall not pass” up an opportunity to eat at this amazing table. It is absolutely beautiful.

Some might imagine that it would have… [Read more]
