A bow of the Galadhrim was the gift Galadriel bestowed to Legolas.

History

Before the Company of the Ring left Lothlórien, Galadriel presented each of them with gifts: "To Legolas she gave a bow such as the Galadhrim used. The bow was longer and stouter than the bows of Mirkwood, and it was strung with a string of elf-hair". The gift was accompanied by a quiver of arrows. The bow proved to be a very useful gift indeed, for it was with this bow that Legolas shot down the descending Fell beast from the sky, near the rapids of Sarn Gebir. Legolas laid it down with his other weapons when Gandalf and the Three Hunters entered Edoras. Aragorn recovered Andúril afterward and Legolas fought with a bow in the Battle of the Hornburg, presumably the recovered bow of Galadriel.
