Scarab Beetle maybe? Very popular Egyptian revival design from the Victorian era.

Paperweight? Does it weigh an ounce? A pound? 20 pounds? You give us no hint of the size.

Are you sure it's a Dragon head and not an Eagle head?
Looks like the right size for the top of a letter opener.

I don't know if post are showing or not. The dragon is from a matchbox. The beetle is small.

Does the fly have any points where a pin may have been attached? I agree it looks like a pin or broach.
