Fish head-shaped pendants

A set of about 30 gilded, silvered bronze pendants. All are embellished with a cross, and the crosses, like the fish heads, are silvered with niello decorated triquetras and carved rope patterns. The pendants are worn close together like a large set of beads at chest height over the woman's clothing. Found together with the box brooch "under a stenvast [stone field boundary wall]", Krasse, Guldrupe Parish, Gotland.
