This elaborate pendant is adorned with different coloured stones, which are decorated at the edges with granulation. As not much is known about the jewellery belonging to the post-Majapahit and second Mataram period, this pendant is rare and important. The superior level of smithing skills attained at this time is evident from this piece.
