They would have been surrounded by stones or perhaps pearls. Item E is a bezel cup for a glass or stone jewelry setting. Item F is a cuprous metal brooch fragment. Images G-I are wire coils. Item G is the silver bob earring after cleaning. Images K and L show an eye and chain, and jump ring, respectively. Item M is a gold gilt white metal ring with decorated sides.
