This beautiful piece of jewelry is crafted in the image of the famed Norse symbol of Thor`s Hammer. Made of English pewter and marvelously sculpted, it presents numerous patterns of Norse design with the front facing of the hammer even being etched in a series of runes, which together are collectively known as a Bindrune. These runes, paired in twos, come together to represent long-lasting joy and prosperity attained through life, courage and wisdom in finding opportunities, and the health, strength of will, and determination to succeed. Hanging approximately 1 3/4" long, this necklace comes on an 18 1/4" long, serpentine styled chain that closes with a clasp.
