Heh... erm... yes. So who did make the Doors? I'm sure Celebrimbor was somehow involved.....

Probably supplied the material and some workers. I seriously doubt Narvi did it all alone. Anyway, it was a symbolic event: the dwarves showed, by allowing the elves to design/build the entrance to their realm that they trusted them, thus trying to repair the damage done by Thingol and his smiths.

Narvi was a dwarf, now that I think of it. Got confused by TC.

Yay, I knew it! *maniacal victory laughter*
The Doors of Moria was a partnership between elves (Celebrimbor) and Dwarves (Narvi)! The reason I asked in the first place is because a friend in real life asked about it, because she said the writing on the doors looked Elvish.
