A resistance standard is an extremely precise accurate resistor. They are typically used for calibration or laboratory purposes. They are commerically available from 100 microohms (0.0001 ohms) - 100 Terraohm (100,000,000,000,000 ohms) and are typically stable to 1-100 ppm per year for single value resistors depending on resistance and cost.

See links for a commercial example of available resistance standards.
