Description of the Product
One of the most iconic and revered symbols in Norse mythology is Thor's hammer, also known as Mjölnir. In the myths, Mjölnir is described as a fearsome and mighty weapon, capable of unleashing the thunder and lightning of Thor, the God of Thunder.
The Old Norse name Mjölnir for the Thor's hammer means crusher or lightning. The Mjölnir was the magical war hammer of the Viking god Thor, who used it to fight the enemies of the gods, especially the giants and, at the end of the world in Ragnarok, the Midgard Serpent. After being thrown, the Thor's hammer returned to Thor's hand all by itself.
Beyond its destructive capabilities, the hammer also serves as a symbol of Thor's role as a protector of both gods and mortals. It has been seen as a talisman of warding, safeguarding the realms from chaos, as well as a talisman of fertility.
Wearing Thor's hammer was a common practice among the Norse tribes in the 9th and 10th centuries and his hammer has been depicted on a variety of objects from the archaeological record. As an amulet, Thor´s hammer became most popular in the late Viking Age with the arrival of Christianity and the need of the people to present their faith similarly to the Christian cross.
Today the symbol appears in a wide variety of media and is again worn as a pendant by various groups, including modern day practitioners of paganism and heathenry and people interested in history and Vikings.
This specific hammer is a beautiful replica of one of the finest and most famous Viking Era pendants. The original 10th century “Mjölnir of Kabbarp” was found from Skåne, Sweden. This bronze pendant is plated with real silver.
