Freyja's legendary necklace forged by four dwarves.
Brísingamen is the powerful necklace acquired by the goddess Freyja from four dwarves, Álfriggr, Dvalinn, Berlingr, and Grerr, in exchange for spending one night with each of them. It is regarded as her foremost ornament and attribute of power.
The necklace was stolen by Loki at Óðinn's behest and recovered by Heimdallr after a contest in which both took the form of seals at the sea's edge. It symbolises the goddess's connection to beauty, love, and divine power.
