HAMMER OF THOR OR MJöLLNIR IS BEAUTIFULLY ENGRAVED AND HANDCARVED FROM BONE (bovinae family)!! * Most surviving stories relating to Germanic mythology either mention Thor or focus on Thor's exploits. Thor was a much revered god of the ancient Germanic peoples from at least the earliest surviving written accounts of the indigenous Germanic tribes to over a thousand years later in the late Viking Age. * Thor owns a short-handled hammer, Mjöllnir, which, when thrown at a target, returns magically to its owner. His Mjöllnir also has the power to throw lightning bolts. To wield Mjöllnir, Thor wears the belt Megingjord, which boosts the wearer's strength and a pair of special iron gloves, Járngreipr, to lift the hammer. Mjöllnir is also his main weapon when fighting giants. The uniquely shaped symbol subsequently became a very popular ornament during the Viking Age * Pendant size: 1.5 inches (4.0cm) long; 1.2 inches (3.0cm) wide * no-questions-asked money back or exchange guarantee! * Makes a great gift! * Over a period of time bone carvings absorb oils from your skin and change colour to a very light honey gold. The Maori believe this is to be the carving taking on some of your spirituality or essence and thus truly becoming a part of the wearer. * Carvings made of bone are soft and warm to the touch yet the finish is like polished glass, they seem to blend with your body and become a part of you, especially when warn as a pendant against your skin. * condition: Brand New * Cotton is durable and you can wear it while swimming or taking showers. * This pendant comes on an adjustable cotton string - fits all neck sizes!
