Physical Appearance
The Noldor were very tall and of muscular build. Their hair colour was usually very dark brown (according to Tolkien, Elves did not have absolute black hair), but red and even white ("silver") hair exist among them too. Their eyes were usually grey or dark.
Intertribal marriage seemed to be common among them, and Noldor sometimes married both Teleri and Vanyar, being well acquainted with both tribes in Valinor.

Famous quotes containing the words physical and/or appearance:
“Dying is something we human beings do continuously, not just at the end of our physical lives on this earth.”
—Elisabeth Kübler-Ross (b. 1926)
“Never before has a generation of parents faced such awesome competition with the mass media for their children’s attention. While parents tout the virtues of premarital virginity, drug-free living, nonviolent resolution of social conflict, or character over physical appearance, their values are daily challenged by television soaps, rock music lyrics, tabloid headlines, and movie scenes extolling the importance of physical appearance and conformity.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
