kylrums
Kylrums are a type of traditional musical instrument originating from the fictional world of Middle-earth, as depicted in J.R.R. Tolkien's works. The term "kylrums" is derived from the Quenya language, meaning "small bells." These instruments are often depicted as small, hand-held bells that produce a delicate and ethereal sound. In Tolkien's lore, kylrums are associated with the Elves, particularly the Noldor, and are used in various musical contexts, including ceremonies and celebrations. The sound of kylrums is described as soft and melodious, contributing to the enchanting atmosphere of the Elven realms. Despite their small size, kylrums hold significant cultural and musical importance in the mythology of Middle-earth.
