It was the ring of Barahir, a trothbond from Felagund, passed down from elendil through the generations of the heirs of Arnor (including its gift to and redemption from the Lossuth).

Well I suppose that if Felagund got it from his father, then the stone would have been clear and colorless unless exposed to starlight when it would dazzle the eye with splendors of silver and blue.

I'm going to go ahead and answer this one:

The ring was in the fashion of 2 serpents, one devouring and one supporting a crown of golden flowers.... they had emerald eyes.....

Next question:

Who did Ringil strike seven times?

Technically right. But I should have mentioned that I also meant an Aeglos different than Gil-Galad's spear. This is one of the two in question.

I'm terribly sorry I forgot to point out that the answer to Aeglos(2) lies in the Unfinished Tales.
Taimar, you are right that Aeglos(2) is a flower.
Whoever finds out first where it grew gets to ask next, I'd say.
