Phial of Galadriel

Item from The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien

A crystal vial containing the light of Eärendil's star — the most ancient and holy light in existence, given to Frodo as a weapon against the darkness that no sword can fight.

Also known as: Phial of Galadriel, the Star-glass, Galadriel's light, the Phial

What They Know

• The light within is from Eärendil's star, which contains the light of the last Silmaril — the most ancient light in existence
• The Phial is most effective against creatures of darkness: Shelob, the Watchers, and similar beings of shadow
• The light's intensity responds to the bearer's courage and need — it blazes brightest in the darkest moments
• Invoking Eärendil's name while holding the Phial increases its power — 'Aiya Eärendil Elenion Ancalima'
