SV’s geek notes: Although Enel and Enelyë are wearing colors resembling Tyrian Purple / Royal Purple / Phoenician Red that can be derived from murex sea snails, even if they had access to sea snails, I don’t envision them slaughtering thousands of snails just for vanity. So I’m thinking that the dyes are something resembling rose madder. They have gold jewelry as status symbols, but they prefer botanical crowns. Wildflowers seemed appropriate for Enelyë, since the Nandor descend from the Nelyar, and I couldn’t resist using grapes for Enel’s crown, since a certain descendant of his will have a wine cellar that features prominently in the escape of one Hobbit and a bunch of Dwarves in the year 2941 of the Third Age.
