Measure at home in 2 minutes
You need a strip of paper (or a string or shoelace), a pen and a ruler.
- Take a string or a shoelace and mark on it the length you are considering, for example 22".
- Hold the two marks together at the back of your neck, wearing the kind of top you usually wear.
- Look in a mirror: the lowest point of the string is where the chain will sit.
- Too high or too low? Try 2" more or less: that is one size up or down.
Already own a chain you like? Lay it flat, clasp closed, and measure it end to end. A broad neck or chest makes every length sit a little higher.
No ruler? A bank card is 3.4" long: count how many fit along your strip.

Chain width
Thor's hammer, with knotwork and dragon lines in steel.
Atlas held the weight of the world in two hands. The Norse gave Thor a hammer for the same kind of work. This Mjolnir sits flat and centered, wide enough to read across a room, with knotwork, dragon lines and a cross-hatched handle that catch light from every angle. Stainless steel on a wheat chain, all silver or two-tone, in 20, 24 or 28 in.
- Does not rust, does not turn skin green
- All silver or two-tone gold accents
- Lengths of 20, 24 or 28 in
Details & specs
Pendant and chain are stainless steel, a metal that resists rust and corrosion through daily wear. The hammerhead carries raised Viking knotwork and dragon motifs, the handle has a fine cross-hatch texture, and the bail is worked into the top of the hammer so the pendant hangs straight. Every surface has something to look at.
Choose all silver-tone steel, or the two-tone version where a gold-tone plated finish traces the banding on the bail, the handle collar and the ends of the hammerhead. The wheat chain has a dense, braided link structure that feels solid in the hand and keeps its shape. The color sits only on the accents.
How to wear it
With a plain white or black tee, the hammer lands on the chest and carries the outfit on its own. Under an open collar with a denim or leather jacket it shows just enough, and it pairs well with a steel watch. Save it for weekends, concerts and travel rather than formal suits.
Choosing your size
The chain comes in 20, 24 and 28 in (50, 60 and 70cm). 20 in sits just below the collarbone and works under an open collar. 24 in drops to mid-chest and is the easy choice for most men wearing it over a tee. 28 in hangs lower, for a looser look or over layers. If he is broad through the chest, size up one length.
Why this piece
A Norse symbol, well made
Mjolnir, the hammer of Thor, is one of the best-known symbols of Norse myth. The knotwork and dragon detail carry that story.
Steel that holds up
Stainless steel does not rust, and the wheat chain links are tight and substantial rather than thin.
A gift for the man who carries everything

Questions
Can I swim with the Mjolnir pendant on its wheat chain?
Yes. Pendant and wheat chain are stainless steel, which resists rust and corrosion. On the two-tone version, rinse after the sea so the gold-tone accents stay even.
Will the gold-tone accents last?
They are a plated finish for daily wear. Keep perfume, cologne and cleaning products off the hammer and store it apart from other jewelry.
Where does Thor's hammer land on the 20, 24 and 28 in wheat chains?
20 in sits just below the collarbone, 24 in drops to mid-chest over a tee, and 28 in hangs lower over layers. If he is broad through the chest, size up one length.
What is Mjolnir?
Mjolnir is the hammer of Thor in Norse mythology. Small hammer pendants were worn as amulets in the Viking Age, traditionally for protection.
Which parts are gold-tone on the two-tone version?
Only the accents: the banding on the bail, the handle collar and the ends of the hammerhead. The rest is silver-tone steel.
Is it a good gift for a fan of Norse mythology?
Yes. The hammerhead carries Viking knotwork and dragon motifs, and you choose the chain length, so it suits the way he wears it.
Does the hammer hang straight?
Yes. The bail is worked into the top of the hammer, so the pendant hangs straight.
What chain does it come on?
A stainless steel wheat chain with a dense, braided link that keeps its shape, in 20, 24 or 28 in.
