The Mjollnir necklace makes wearing a powerful mythological tool around your neck acceptable and tasteful.

When making this design, James Sullivan didn't think about Thor the marvel character who saved Earth from destruction in his latest movie by wielding his mighty hammer; he used the Norse mythological tales to be the guiding light for the [pendant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bond-heart-necklace). The end result is an [antique charm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pyrrha-x-wicked) that is genuine bronze. There are [spiraled engravings on the metal](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protect-collection) that relate it to the mysticism and power that the hammer was rumored to carry.

The Mjollnir necklace comes on a 30-inch chain that dangles from your neck like a warrior. You may feel the power of Thor coursing through your veins when you have this necklace on -- or you may just understand the myths more.
