This Mjolnir wolf necklace replicates the hammer carried by the Norse god of thunder. A wolf face adds a fierce touch near the bottom. The pewter is a soft silver-gray.
Thor swung the hammer to split mountains and scatter frost giants. This Thor hammer pendant has a short handle and a blunt head.
The Prose Edda says Loki wagered his head on a bet with the dwarf brothers Sindri and Brokkr. A fly, secretly Loki, bit Brokkr's hand at the bellows. The handle came out short. Norse Mjolnir jewelry recalls the tale.
Even so, the hammer struck true and always returned to Thor's grip. Lightning was said to follow each blow. A Viking hammer charm still carries that storm power.
Archaeologists have found hundreds of Mjolnir pendants across Scandinavia, England, and the Baltic. Viking Age smiths cast them in bronze, silver, and iron. The Thor hammer pendant continues a thousand-year-old habit.
