Gifts of Galadriel
From Tolkien Gateway
The Gifts of Galadriel were items Galadriel gave to the Fellowship of the Ring on 16 February T.A. 3019[1] to aid them in their journey.
Before the parting feast, the Galadhrim gave the members of the Fellowship these items:
- Lembas for food
- Elven cloaks with Elven brooches
- Some Elven rope for Sam
- Boats for the Anduin (Mostly Celeborn)
- Feast that featured Galadriel's singing
At the parting feast, Galadriel presented specific gifts to each member of the Fellowship:
- The Elfstone for Aragorn II
- A sheath for Andúril for Aragorn II
- A golden belt for Boromir
- A silver belt for Merry
- A silver belt for Pippin
- A Galadhrim bow strung with elf hair and arrows for Legolas
- A small grey wooden box with a silver rune "G for Galadriel". Inside the box was earth from Galadriel's orchard. The box also contained a silver nut from a Mallorn tree, the last east of the sea and west of the mountains. This was given to Sam.
- Three strands of Galadriel's hair for Gimli
- The Phial of Galadriel for Frodo[2]
