Hand-Cast Norse Axe Amulet with Historical Design, Made in Ukraine
This Brass Mjolnir pendant combines Norse tradition with modern craftsmanship, hand-cast by independent artisans in Ukraine using recycled military brass. The design draws inspiration from Viking Age pendants, such as the Mammen Axe and Thor’s Hammer amulets found across Scandinavia and Eastern Europe between the 9th and 12th centuries.
Each piece is individually made using the lost wax casting method, a technique practiced by historical Viking smiths. The result is a solid, well-balanced pendant with carefully finished details and a subtle aged look.
Design Features:
Material: Brass (recycled military cartridges)
Size: Approx. 4 cm
Cord: Black waxed cotton, 15.7 in (adjustable on request)
Weight: Around 13 g
Crafting Method: Traditional lost wax casting, hand-finished
Origin: Made in Ukraine
Thor’s Hammer in Norse Mythology
In mythology, Mjolnir was the hammer of Thor, a god associated with storms and protection. Forged by dwarves, it became a powerful tool of defense and a symbol of strength, justice, and resilience.
This pendant reflects that heritage while maintaining a clean, historic design rooted in real archaeological references.
