| This article is about the crown of Morgoth. For the real-world company, see Iron Crown Enterprises. |
The Iron Crown was forged by Morgoth in Angband, after his return to Middle-earth towards the end of the First Age, to hold the Silmarils and to emphasize his claim to the mantle of "King of the World".
History[]
The three Silmarils were set into the crown, fastened by iron claws. In the Quest for the Silmaril, as told in the tale "Of Beren and Luthien", Beren pried one Silmaril loose from the crown using his knife.[1] After Morgoth's defeat in the War of Wrath, the other two jewels were removed, and the crown was beaten into a collar for his neck.[2]
