Well, Galadriel and the other elves could see that dwarves can be surprisingly more noble and greater than they thought. Obviously Galadriel offered a gift in token of her appreciation and on behalf of the appreciation of the other elves for the sake of friendship as a result of Gimli. I do not think Galadriel thought Gimli would ask for this but as Inziladun said, how could she refuse once she commanded him. Who knows if she would have given them (or at least one) to Gimli had he asked on his own. And also, this gift was a show of respect, for Gimli and maybe for the race of dwarves.
