Thor's hammer found in Repton
Dimensions: 25 mm x 18 mm
The original Thor's hammer, a perfect miniature hammer without any decoration made of plain silver was excavated from the neck of a warrior buried in Grave 511 at Repton, Derbys (Biddle and Klolbye-Biddle 2001, fig. 4.14,1)
The owner of the original hammer was burried together with 248 other Great Heathen Army warriors in a mass grave at Repton Church.
The Repton Viking Warrior was 6 foot tall, aged 35-40 and killed in battle. He is said to be Ivar The Boneless
The things he was buried for his afterlife, the analyzed set of battle wounds and the specific way he was put in the grave should confirm that.
It's great to see his facial reconstruction at Derby Museum!
The pendant is hanged on a natural brown leather cord with knots regulating length from choker to necklace

LIVING WITH BRONZE
If you're contemplating adding a bronze jewelry to your collection, please mind that bronze is by no means as consistent as gold or silver. Aging of bronze will occur quickly with contact with your skin, parfume, moist air etc. Patina on bronze is surface oxidization and it's creating an outer layer on the surface of bronze item rather than eating away like rust on metal.
There are three schools of treating bronze. The first one is to let it age naturally and gracefully and observe the process. The second: to force the patina (you can find a lot of tricks on the Internet) and the third one: to stop (to a certain extend) the bronze from aging. I would recommend silver cleaning cloth for the beginning and cleaning the jewelry very often, obligatory after wearing it.
