Balder's Ring Draupnir Tungsten Carbide Ring

The ring Draupnir was forged by the dwarfs the realm of Niðavellir at the same time as Thor’s hammer Mjolnir and the spear Gungnir, being one of the most prized possessions of Odin.

After the death of Baldr, Allfather Odin deposited the ring on Baldr’s funeral ship, so his son would take the ring with him to the afterlife. Soon after the funeral, the heroic Hermodr traveled to Helheim to parlay with the Goddess of death herself for the release of Baldr. Although Baldr remains an honored guest in the halls of the dead, Baldr sent back through Hermodr the ring Draupnir to his father Odin, as a token of his appreciation.

According to the legend, every ninth night, eight new golden rings of equal weight would emerge from the magic ring Draupnir, ensuring wealth and prosperity for its owner.

Baldr is associated with light and beauty, and star on the center of the ring symbolizes a beautiful new dawn.

This ring is made of Tungsten Carbide, a highly resistant alloy made of equal parts of Tungsten and Carbon. The alloy, twice as hard as steel, can only be polished and finished with abrasives of superior hardness such as cubic boron nitride and diamond powder, making it one of the most resistant rings you will ever have.
