The original of this Hammer was part of a hoard found in 1893 while building a house in Stenby, county of Motala, Sweden. The hord is thought to date from about the year 1000. These Hammers were made in close cooperation with with Östergötland Läns Museum. The maker was able to arrange the loan of the original in order to make an exact copy. The surface does not have the punched decoration, but it has subtle hammered finish and a very attractive defined shape (IMO). The Hammer itself is about 1 3/8" tall and 1 1/16 (1.08”) wide, and is mounted on a ring. With the loop. it’s just over 2" tall. Crafted in silver and imported from Sweden, $59.
I like this one.
