Hey everyone got out today for a little bit to an old miners town from the 1900-1910 era. Didn't pick much out between all the iron but I did find what appears to be a small mirror with a female figure on the front. Any ideas who she is? I also found that item with the jewels(costume jewelry maybe). What would that be to? Never seen one before. I appreciate you guys lookin and hope someone can answer my questions.

Possibly Athena considering the helmet, as she was the goddess of war.
 
Generic lady in the art nouveau style.
 
Crusader is correct...
Generic Art nouveau.
It is not a helmet...
It is a hat/headgear /band/ whatever fruity tuti thing you wanna call it.
This was a style of hat in this time.

Similar to this...
Which is called "mucha"

Nice finds and congrats! The jewelry piece with the stones looks like it might be some sort of belt or maybe dress strap decoration. It does not appear to be a belt buckle and just appears to have a belt or strap slide through the holder on the back. I am sure that someone will know what it is and will post the answer.

Art Nouveau period ladies rhinestone sash buckle - or at least one half of a pair, very sweet!

Yep, that is what it is. I found one half last year and my buddy found the other half of one.
 
Thanks for all the replies guys means a lot. Hope everyone has a great Independence Day
