Middle-earth rings and jewels Middle-earth rings and jewels The Arkenstone (or Heart of the Mountain) of Thrain was a wondrous gem sought by Thorin Oakenshield in J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit. It was discovered beneath Erebor (the Lonely Mountain) by Thorin's ancestor Thrain and shaped by the Dwarves. The Arkenstone became the family heirloom of Durin's folk, but was lost when the dragon Smaug captured the mountain from the Dwarves. The Arkenstone shone of its own inner light, but having been cut and fashioned by the Dwarves, it also reflected and multiplied any light glancing upon its surface with marvelous beauty. Some have speculated that the Arkenstone was, in fact, a rediscovery and remaking of a Silmaril of Fëanor, which Maedhros the son of Fëanor bore when he cast himself into a fiery chasm in the upheaval accompanying the end of the First Age of Middle-Earth. This could account for its discovery deep underground beneath the roots of the Mountain, for its intrinsic light, and the obsession and passion which gripped each person who held the great jewel (including Bilbo Baggins). ...more on Wikipedia about "Arkenstone"

In J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, Vilya, the Ring of Air, was one of the Rings of Power made by the Elves of Eregion. Along with Nenya and Narya, Vilya was often referred to as one of the Three Rings of the Elves, the mightiest of the Rings of Power. Celebrimbor, lord of Eregion forged all three independent of Annatar, a guise of the Dark Lord Sauron. As a result of this, none of the Three were stained by his evil. However, like all the Rings of the Elves, Vilya was still under Sauron's influence when he wielded The One Ring, which held dominion over all the others. When Sauron laid waste to Eregion, Vilya was sent to the Elven-King Gil-galad far away in Lindon, where it was later given to Elrond, who bore it through the later years of the Second Age and all of the Third. ...more on Wikipedia about "Vilya"
