Silmaril

Well, it may be the Mirror of Galadriel, but I've always believed it was only called so due to ownership, not because she controlled what people saw in the water (which she does not). I have no doubt it is intrinsically connected to her, but she doesn't tell the mirror what to show, if you follow me. Galadriel herself stated that she could not tell what Frodo was to see when he visited the mirror.
My point is, it may be something to do with the viewer's mind; what thoughts concern him or her most greatly. That's my opinion.
