Believe the #1 to possibly be from a brass pocket watch case.
#2 no idea. Posted #2 on another site but no luck identifying it.
Front and back shown.
Lincoln cent for size reference.
From the short time I been here this site has been great at identifying items.

Except for the screw-eye attaching point, it looks like an earring. Part of some wooden decoration maybe?

#1 very likely ID. #2 Drawer pull?

#1 is a bezel for a coin or possibly a magnifying glass lens.
#2 has an Asian feel to me. possibly for small dresser cabinet drawer.

No 1 looks too thin to hold a watch movement, and it couldn't have been stem wound.

2 may be an ornamental plate that mounted behind a drawer pull, on a buffet or cabinet.

Item #1 is half of grandma's reading glasses.

I may have to agree with you and consider this solved.

As with item #2, may never know exactly what it was. But can see it has threads to go into something wood. I’ll go along with the belief it was or went with a drawer pull.
Thanks for all your help in solving this.
