Mjolnir: The Hammer of Thor
In Norse mythology, Mjolnir is the name of the hammer carried by the Thunder God Thor. Distinctively shaped, Mjöllnir is depicted as one of the most fearsome weapons, capable of leveling mountains.

Thor’s Hammer pendants were widely worn as amulets in the Viking era. Today they are worn by practitioners of Germanic Neopaganism worldwide as a symbol of their faith. Whirling Sun is offering a large, thick and heavy Thor’s hammer inspired by an original found in Iceland.

Viking Knit chain is a type of woven wire chain that is made by hand- working a single strand of wire into interconnected loops. Each necklace is woven from a strand of wire that is 60' - 90' long! After all the weaving is done the chain is drawn through a die and is transformed into a smooth, flexible, and beautiful necklace.

Examples of Viking Knit chains have been discovered in archaeological excavations throughout northern Europe dating back to the 8th Century.

Our Viking knit chain is the double knit pattern for strength and looks and terminates in a pair of dragon heads that hold an Oath ring of twisted  wire in their mouths.

Chains from 16" through 24" long have a bronze clasp. 26" chains will slip over most people's heads without needing a clasp and are one continuous piece.
