Hey. I was wondering of any of the very alleged Tolkien scholars could help me out. Could you tell me the meaning of these symbols on these pendents?
Thanks in advance!  _________________ <center>~*The Not-Too-Much-Obsessed-With-Nature A-U Gentle-Woman*~<center>

I don't think they 'mean' anything in particular--I'd say they're just various emblems and crests and such, though I don't know whose.

The small one on the upper left looks like an Elven heraldic symbol, although the picture quality isn't good enough to tell whose. Some male Elf. I'll try to track down who it might be for you.

Hmm I was thinking it was Elrond's.  _________________ <center>~*The Not-Too-Much-Obsessed-With-Nature A-U Gentle-Woman*~<center>

The flower on the lower left pendant could symbolise the Simbelmynë perhaps.

As said, those symbols don't mean anything. The look good, but I'm not sure they have any relevance to Tolkien. What makes you think they have some middle-earthen meaning?

The bottom-left pendant represents the flower made with dolphins that is on top of Nenya... Well at least it looks like the thing I've got on my Nenya ring!  _________________

Hmmm... I'm GUESSING that the big pic is one from Legolas' quiver (and thus probably his bow also), the one on the top right is most likely either Gondorian, or mabye even Rohirric, the one below that is.... Hmm. I'm torn between Imladris and Rohan. (Odd mix, I know, but seriously, I can't tell. But I'm going for Rohan in the long run) and I'm almost positive that the diamond/square type thing is from one of the elven banners in Imladris. It might even be from Gil-Galad's banner. And the flower-dy type one is Nenya.
