Kobelev Thor’s Hammer Necklace Sterling Silver

Kobelev Thor’s Hammer Necklace Sterling Silver

Replica of the runic Thor’s hammer

A unique Thor’s hammer amulet discovered on the Danish island of Lolland in 2014 is officially the only known example of its kind inscribed with runes.
The amulet, dated to the 10th century, is made of bronze and features a runic inscription on one side consisting of seven characters.
The inscription, deciphered by runologist Lisbeth Imer at the National Museum of Denmark, reads “Hmar is x,” which translates to “This is a hammer” in English.
The inscription contains two errors: the first ‘a’ in “hammer” is omitted, and the S-rune is reversed, possibly due to the constraints of the small space or the carver’s literacy.

The runic inscription has been interpreted not only as a simple identification but also as a potential magical or apotropaic formula. The sequence of runes, when analyzed numerically according to the younger fuþark, yields a value of 50, which is ten times the number five, associated with the rune raiðo (“riding”) and the Old English derivative rad, linked to “Þunor’s riding” or the clap of thunder.
This interpretation connects the amulet to Thor’s thunderous chariot and the power of Mjölnir.

The chain length is 51cm, diameter of the ring is about 15mm

In Norse mythology, Mjölnir is the hammer of Thor, a major Norse god associated with thunder. Mjölnir is depicted in Norse mythology as one of the most fearsome and powerful weapons in existence, capable of levelling mountains. The hammer was made by the dwarven brothers Eitri and Brokkr.
Thor’s hammer, or Mjolnir, is a powerful Nordic protective amulet, a symbol of the creative powers of man. It is really powerful protection from any negative energy. Protects from curses by neutralising them. Thor’s hammer gives confidence in your abilities.
