Harness Pendant by unknown artist. A circular, gold-colored pendant with a small loop at the top. The pendant is primarily blue with a large black center outlined in gold. The blue area is surrounded by red sections outlined in gold, and the entire pendant is bordered by a gold, textured frame. A gold-colored leaf-like design overlaps the black center. The pendant appears to be made of metal and has a textured, aged appearance.
