Jorvik Thor’s Hammer

12.99$

Brand:Asgard

The Jorvik Thor’s Hammer is a modern take on the classic hammer of the Viking period. The shaft is detailed with a design from a carved cross from the Isle of Man and depicts a Jelling style dragon. The design on the head of the hammer is taken from a bone trial piece found in the Coppergate excavations, York. It shows a typical style knotwork from the Viking period. It is interesting to note that the original carving from York was incomplete and we have finished it off for this new design. The piece weighs approx. 27g. It is hand made in Scotland, and comes ready to wear with a length of black waxed cord.

Dimensions: 42 mm x 50 mm

Here at Asgard we have one passion: Vikings!

We've spent thousands of hours over the last twenty years studying Viking period artefacts. We've honed our experimental archaeology skills to work out how things were made 1000 years ago, and applied that to the replica Viking items we hand make in Scotland.
