They raised himFenrir is usually introduced as a monster the gods had to deal with. The detail that gets dropped is that they brought him up.He was taken to Asgard as a cub and kept among them, and as he grew the gods became frightened of him. Only Tyr would go near enough to feed him.So the binding is not a story about defeating an enemy. It is a story about a household turning on something it took in and raised itself, which is considerably bleaker and rather more human.Rope or chainThe pendant is a round medallion inside a twisted rope border, with a spoked sun wheel cut through the disc and a wolf head in profile laid over it, jaws open.Four options, and the real choice is the cord rather than the colour.The rope is softer against the neck, sits quietly and suits a worn, informal look. It will eventually fray, particularly if you swim or shower in it.The chain lasts indefinitely and matches the pendant, but a metal link chain is the part most likely to fail if it catches, and it is more noticeable to wear.For daily wear under clothing, rope. For a piece worn visibly, chain.Our article on Fenrir has the whole story. See wolf jewelry.Free worldwide shipping, 7 to 12 business days. 30 day returns. See our shipping policy for details.
