today's relic's

Hey guy's. I'm pretty sure one of the piece's is a old piece from a safe or luggage chest. But i'm not sure of the other two item's. the one on the stick, that was the second one i found within a 100 yard radius. the other piece, look's like some kind of primitive doctor's instrument/weapon of some sort.

What you have there that is on the right side of picture #2 and #3, is a flower holder. The other is a keyhole cover.

The above item rests at the bottom of a container and helps to hold the flowers and other plants more upright.

Hi Picker,
I reckon you are right with the first being an 'Escutcheon' plate for a lock,

and possibly the second item (is base Lead ?) could be a weight for 'Flower arranging' in a vase where the flowers were spiked onto item and weight and spikes kept flowers straight.

Go back and just take your time, slowly. Listen carefully to those faint but strong signals, and you may be rewarded. :icon_thumright:
