Silmarillion Heraldry Icons

Ten transparent icons made from Tolkien's heraldic designs for Silmarillion characters:

Idril Lúthien Lúthien (alternate) Melian Elwë
Finwë Finarfin Finrod Bëor Gil-Galad


Drop them on top of a background of your choice, or just use as-is like I do!

(Finrod's heraldry looks so different from the others because it's in the Mannish rather than the Elvish style; meanwhile, Bëor's has a fairly Elvish design. Perhaps they designed them for each other?)

I am constantly in awe of what a good amateur artist JRRT was.

These are lovely.

I like your idea that Finrod and Beor designed each other’s devices. I must admit that I've always wished Finrod had a more stylised design.

Those are gorgeous! I'm saving nearly all of them for my icon hoard. I want to start using at least one, but first I'd have to decide which . . .
