About the Item

19th century brass pendant on yellow multi-strand beaded necklace, Naga, India A graceful necklace of small yellow glass trade beads beads looped into a brass amulet from the Naga people of Nagaland, Northeastern India. The shape of this "fish tail" chest ornament is said to imitate a cut conch shell and was worn by warriors. A lovely example, it possesses a smooth patina from decades of wear. The inner circumference as tied is 32" (81.2 cm) and the pendant is 4" (10 cm) long.
