The magic hammer of the thunder god Thor, Mjolnir produced lightning bolts and was Thor's indispensible weapon against the enemies of gods and men. With it he was invincible in battles with frost giants, mountain giants, hill ogres, trolls, and other monsters and demons that threatened heaven and earth. After being thrown, the hammer would magically return to Thor's hand. He had a pair of magic iron gauntlets he always wore when welding Mjolnir, since without them he would be unable to grasp the powerful hammer shaft. The Norse people believed that when the ground was struck by lightning, Thor had sent his hammer crashing to the earth. Although Mjolnir could be the bringer of death, it was also a symbol of life and fertility in connection with Thor's influence over rains and, by extension, good crops. This handcrafted pewter pendant is double-sided, and is identical on each side. Each pewter pendant comes with a 24" silvertone chain. Measurements: Please note that the image is not to scale. This item is approximately 1.25" by 1.25" wide (3.5cm x 3.5cm). | ||||||||
