From LoveToKnow Jewelry
One of the most beautiful pieces of jewelry created for The Lord of the Rings film trilogy is the elegant pendant known as Arwen’s necklace. Worn by the Elven Princess Arwen, this striking necklace is also known as the Evenstar necklace, the name given to Arwen by her people because of her incredible beauty.
Designed by Jasmine Watson
Well-known jewelry designer Jasmine Watson’s spectacular and stunning designs are seen in J. R. R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings films. In an interview with War of the Ring Ms. Watson tells how the Arwen Evenstar necklace required the most time to design. She felt that it was essential that the importance and complexity of the necklace throughout the films be reflected in its intricate and delicate design. The necklace, symbolizing the very essence of Arwen’s being and unparalleled loveliness, also had to relay a sense of the magical and clever powers of the Princess of the Elves that created it for her.

Princess Arwen Evenstar gave her beautiful necklace to Aragon to pledge her eternal love to him. This special gift from an immortal elf to a mortal man symbolized Arwen's decision to forsake her immortality to be with the person she truly loves.
