Actually, diamond is a particularly crystallic type of crystal, you know (lol I'm slightly interested in geology, actually). But it does seem that the Arkenstone was made of some heavy material or other, similar to the Sils, rather than the light little phial -- that may in fact have been glass -- that Galadriel gave.
Seems my guesswork paid off [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]. I thought Arkenstone was diamond because it was certainly *white* and the only two precious stones of the color that came to my mind were opal and diamond, and it certainly wasn't opal.

Thanks, Cudae [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]. Just call me by my first name [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img].
