Handmade Replica Viking Age Amber Thor's Hammer Pendant. Hand-Cut & Polished Viking Pendants in 3 Sizes.

All of our amber jewellery is handmade from solid pieces of genuine Baltic amber from Northern Europe. Here we have our Handmade Replica Viking Age Amber Thor's Hammer Pendant, available in small, medium & large size.

Baltic amber is made from 44 million year old fossilised tree resin that is found on the Baltic sea coast. It was often used by the Vikings for making Thor's hammers and other jewellery.

Amber was a valuable commodity and traded from the iron age onward and was collected from the Baltic sea to be traded all over Europe by the Vikings.

Made from cut and polished pieces of genuine Baltic amber with a 2mm hole drilled for suspension and complete with leather thong to hang it from. Individually handmade from natural amber, so shape, size and colour will vary. Each one is unique and made especially for us!
