24k Gold-Plated Viking "Mjolnir" Thor Hammer Pendant

Gilding, or gold plating, was very popular in the Viking age, and there are numerous examples of it being done to a wide variety of jewelry items. We created this Mjolnir, or Thor's hammer pendant with a 1 micron plating of 24k gold in order to make something that was both historically accurate and cost-effective.
