[edit] Summary

Fëanor (created by Mansbjorkman)

Fëanor's device shares the fiery colours of his father's device, and carries the connotation of fire further by having wavy flames that go from the centre outwards. These may be associated with Feanor's name, meaning "Spirit of Fire". (But these flames are also found in Fingolfin's device, where the same association can't be made). In the centre is depicted a Silmaril, the greatest of Fëanor's creations. It is surrounded by a number of coloured fields, possibly representing the art of creating crystals, which he invented.

NOTE: Fëanor's people had an emblem, The Star of Fëanor, which was silver, with eight rays and eight spikes arranged in as silmilar manner to Fëanor's heraldic device.
