It was placed on Baldur's pyre, but his shade sent it back to Asgard with Hermod. Somehow, it ended up in Frey's possession, as Skirnir offered it as a second bribe in his attempt to win Frey the hand of Gerda, but she was unmoved. A similar item, known as Andvaranaut, was used to cover the last whisker of the slain Otter, son of Hreidmar, but was cursed by Andvari. It was created as part of a contest which also saw the creation of a glow-in-the-dark mechanical boar and a wig of living gold. FTP, name this golden treasure which produced eight copies of itself every ninth night, the ring of Odin.
