Inspired by the Iron Druid Chronicles™ series by Kevin Hearne and Thor's Hammer pendants worn by the Viking people, the Badali Jewelry artist, J. Ryan Cazier, designed and created Leif Helgarson's™ Thor's Hammer. Each Thor's Hammer necklace is skillfully crafted in your choice of sterling silver, antiqued sterling silver, yellow bronze, antiqued bronze, or dark bronze. Antiqued silver, antiqued bronze and dark bronze are surface treatments that will eventually wear away over time. How quickly a surface treatment will wear away is dependent on the daily wear and tear the item will be exposed to. The Thors Hammer pendants are carefully hand finished and individually inspected for the highest quality by our staff. Leif's Thor's Hammer is an officially licensed Iron Druid Chronicles replica with Kevin Hearne. Mr. Hearne personally approves each piece of jewelry from our jewelry line.
Atticus's lawyer, Leif Helgarson, is a charming, old fashioned, and extremely powerful Vampire from the Iron Druid Chronicles series. Before becoming a vampire, Leif was a Viking colonist in Iceland during the 10th century. Like most Vikings, he worshiped Thor, the Norse Thunder God, and wore a Thor's Hammer pendant to show his dedication to the God. Mjolnir, Thor's Hammer, is commonly thought to mean "That which smashes". Wearing Thor's Hammer is an expression of strength and determination. Thor punished Leif by killing his family when Leif unknowingly confesses his desire to become a vampire to the God in disguise as a stranger in a tavern. Leif wears his Thor's Hammer necklace throughout the centuries as a symbol of his planned vengeance against Thor.
Leif's Thor's Hammer pendant measures approximately 29.1 mm (just over 1 1/8") long, 24.6 mm (just under 1") at the widest point of the hammer, and 7 mm (just over 1/4") thick. Leif's necklace weighs approximately 11.7 grams in sterling silver, approximately 9.6 grams in bronze. The back of the pendant is partially carved out, stamped with our makers mark, and copyright symbol. The sterling silver pendant is also stamped with the metal content, STER (sterling), ensuring our jewelry is made of the finest metals.
