Rivendell Guard's Helm

Immortal beings, Elves had countless years to devote to the mastery of lore, craft, or swordplay. Though Elrond’s men at arms stood like serene sentinels at the entrances to the Last Homely House, they were swift-limbed and deadly soldiers, sometimes ranging the borders of the realm with their lord on horseback.

Long cloaks and shining armour they had, with tall, crested helms fashioned after those worn by the Elven King Gil-galad’s army of the Second Age. Delicate floral patterns wove themselves around the bowl of the helm and up to meet on the bladed crest, while upon the nose guard they bore the sigil of Lord Elrond, a dome of stars.
