The Phial of Galadriel
the star-glass; the light of Eärendil given to Frodo
The Gift
The Phial of Galadriel was a small crystal phial, filled in the dark with the brilliant star-light of Elbereth, that Galadriel gave to Frodo at the parting of the company of the Ring — a lamp “for the light in dark places” and a hope when all others failed.
The Deed
In the black lair of Shelob the phial flared with the light of Eärendil’s star and drove the spider aback; Samwise bore it to the last, and its radiance was among the chiefest of the small things through which the great evil was at the end undone.
