or a metaphore for the Valor. Sounds like you pretty much summed up all the options, choose which ever one pleases you the most (or all of them ;-)

"One thing I've never understood is why Galadriel chose Celeborn over Celebrimbor...."

Sting twelve squared

144 original elves of the "unbegotten".
Is there some mythological relevence in some culture Tolkein derived this from?

ie. A ring is a powerful symbol of ancient Norse culture.

Sting Elves of Lothlorien?

Are they high elves? Or Sindarian that Galadrial "adopted". My guess would be since she married Celeborn, kinsman of Thingol that they are the remnants of the elves from Doriath.
