Aside from books and maps…
…well, it’s an odd answer I suppose and it’s based in my loose interpretation of your question—but—
Most of my clothes (dresses, tunics, boots) remind me of Middle-earth (most days I go to work dressed suspiciously like an elf or like a ranger)
Five warm cloaks. Hey, I walk my dogs in the dark. Who’s gonna know?
Five modest harps. (Folk harps, not the big ones.) Small to medium sizes. Harps you might see in Rivendell or maybe Lothlorien.
I try, fairly often, to play music you might hear in Lothlorien or Rivendell.
One of my goals is to sing The Our Father in Sindarin, as Tolkien wrote it: Ae Adar nîn I vi Menel…
A steady Longing for light, and truth, and valour, and hope, and trust— all of which I find in the gospel of Christ; — Tolkien is right; eucatastrophe is evangelium.
