The Hobbit Willing Heart Friendship Ring - Ladies - Silver
0.16 kg
Friendship and happiness is worth more than treasure and gold!
In J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit, the best example of friendship above all else comes to us in the form of the bond between Bilbo Baggins and Gandalf. When Bilbo Baggins agrees to partake in the Quest of Erebor he does so not because of the potential riches to be gained, but mainly because of his deep friendship with Gandalf. Similarly, despite the misgivings of Thorin Oakenshield and company, it is Gandalf who understands Bilbo’s strengths and personally asks for his participation in the journey to the Lonely Mountain. Gandalf has to continually convince the dwarves of Bilbo’s ultimate usefulness in the company. And it is Gandalf who sways the dwarves to journey back into goblin infested tunnels to search for Bilbo.
The most moving display of friendship in The Hobbit is in the aftermath of the Battle of the Five Armies. The dying Thorin Oakenshield realises his mistake in cursing Bilbo Baggins for giving away Thrain’s Arkenstone (his family heirloom) to the Bard and the elvenking Thranduil in an attempt to broker a peace between the two sides.
Saying:
“If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world. But, sad or merry, I must leave it now. Farewell.”
The Hobbit, Thorin’s last words.
With that Thorin forgives Bilbo for his double dealing and befriends him once more.
The Willing Heart Friendship Ring symbolises this forgiving and unrelenting nature of true friendships.
