The fishtail pendant (Swedish: fiskhuvudformiga hängen) was worn as jewellery in the women's costume of the Vendel and Viking period from the 8th to the 10th century on the Swedish isle of Gotland.
The fishtail pendants could be made of sheet bronze, but were more often made of cast bronze and sometimes provided with silver-plated parts.
Originally, fishtail pendants were worn strung together as a kind of necklace with up to more than 30 pieces. But many of these pendants were misappropriated during the Viking Age and instead fitted with an eyelet for a chain or even converted into a brooch, whereby up to three pendants were linked together.
