Yes, Aeglos which is also Gil-Galad's spear. Mariska, you probably meant the iris-swords. Have to confess I didn't know about them, now I do - thanks [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

If you mix it with the sap of Tasare, the resulting mixture is an invisibility cream.

I guess my source wasn't that reliable after all... Maybe the answer you are looking for is that it had a sweet perfume.

Yes, that's approximately it - I admit I was a bit vague with this question, mea culpa. It is said in UT: Quote:

Presumably the Swan, as they fashioned their ships in the likeness of swans and named their city Alqualonde, Haven of the Swans.

The seven Butterflys "Aule was making a silver sickle. Melko interrupted his work telling him a lie concerning the lady Palurien. Aule so wroth that he broke the sicle with a blow. Seven sparks lept up and winged into the heavens.Varda caught them and gave them a place in the heavens as a sign of Palurins honor."
Wait a minute you say , what about the sickle of the Valar and the sign of doom? The Sil has her placing the sickle as a sign of doom but BOLT pp145 refers to the sickle as the Seven butterflys! Well done Yavanna 228

Well, after several re-reads it CAN be construed that Varda created Valacirca! Such are the"dangers" of the later publications.I bow to both Beren 87 and Yavanna 228
