Varangian Guard Hammer of Thor Mjolnir Titanium Steel Necklace

Mjolnir, Thor’s hammer and badge of office is one of the most fearsome and powerful weapons in existence, capable of leveling mountains in a single strike. Although most famous for its use as a weapon, Mjolnir plays a vital role in Norse religious practices and rituals, being used to bless marriages, births, and funerals. The Varangian Guard was an elite unit of the Byzantine Army, whose members served as personal bodyguards to the Byzantine Emperors. They were also Vikings. The very term Varangian derives from Old Norse væringi, which is a compound of vár ‘pledge or vow of fidelity’ and gengi ‘companion or fellowship’, which can be roughly translated to ‘sworn companion’. Exotic, ferocious and heavily armored, they were one of the most famous military units in history. This beautiful pendant is made of Titanium steel, a nickel and molybdenum alloy known for its sturdiness and corrosion resistance, and comes in a wooden box. The chain is made of genuine cow leather and is adjustable. Check our shipping policy here.
