    What are these pieces?

    Hi people!

    My first post in this awesome forum.

    I hope you could help me with this pair of objectes, they look like a ring (or a bottle cap) and a bracelet.

    Found on northern Spain, near french border.







    The "ring" is 3 cm X 2 cm and 6 grams weight.

    Thanks!

    the smaller pieces looks like a finial is it threaded inside? the larger piece looks like it could be the loop from a door knocker. ( note the indent on the lower right in first picture where the loop for the knocker plate to attach it to door might have gone) Are they brass, iron?

    I agree. Door knocker or drawer pull. The Brits will be along shortly to find matches on the UK database.
    I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines.  I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.

    Thank you guys, I think metal is brass.

    Do you have idea about how old are them?
