Our Mjölnir replica, on the other hand, is cast completely in one piece, yet the filigree representation is still magnificently expressed.
Dimensions of Mjölnir of Bredsättra: 4.3 x 2.8 x 0.5 cm.
You can buy this Viking pendant in high-quality bronze or real silver-plated.

A black leather cord of 1 m length for the Thor's hammer is included.
The Thor's hammer was the magical war hammer of the god Thor, with which he fought the enemies of the Norse gods such as the giants and the Midgard serpent. The Thor's hammer was therefore also called Mjölnir by the Vikings, which means malmer or lightning.
In the 9th and 10th centuries, the Thor's hammer was very popular among the Vikings as jewellery, as it allowed them to distinguish themselves as Old Believers from the emerging Christianity.
