This lovely Naga tribal Fish Tail Pendant is handmade by Naga tribesman. It is worn as center piece for their glass beads necklace or by itself.

The Naga are hill people of Northeast India. They are radically different from the better known Hindu people of India. They made use of a variety of glass beads, primarily bright colored, and also used conch shells on which they drew pictures rather like petroglyphs. They used to engage in head hunting.
