Skane Thor's hammer with stainless steel chain, gold-plated
Schone / Skane Thor's hammer with chain made of stainless steel.
Replica of the Thor's hammer from Schonen / Southern Sweden; original find from around 1000 AD.
The hammer head features the yearly spiral with equinoxes and solstices, thus also serving as a symbol of infinity.
Thor, the strongest of all Old Norse gods, was highly revered. God of storms and lightning, Thor slew trolls and man-eating giants, and ensured good harvests.
Thor, son of Odin and Jord, was gifted two sons, Magni and Modi, by his wife, the giantess Jarnsaxa.
Thor rules in the hall Bilskinir, his palace in the realm of Trundheim, and he proudly carries his hammer Mjölnir. The "Thor's hammer" was once forged by the dwarves Sindri and Brokk.
Thor derives his strength from his belt Megingjardar and his iron gauntlets Jarngreipr.
Just as today, the Thor's hammer was worn for many centuries by pagan people for protection against danger. The Thor's hammer is THE symbol of the pagan faith.
Schonen (Standard Swedish) and Skåne (Danish) is a term for Scandinavia; it is a historical province in the south of Sweden. Schonen belonged to Denmark until the 17th century. Therefore, the Thor's hammer is referred to as the Schonen Thor's hammer or Skane Thor's hammer.
