earrings

Pendant, possibly an earring, made of mother of pearl. Pendant consists of a cross shape with incised decoration, which may represent an animal such as a fish with ribbed fins. There is also an incised cross pattern in the centre. Pendant is on a metal ring with a break in the loop, which possibly indicates its use as an earring, alongside clear glass beads with white streaks.
