An open bronze vessel with a flattened outward lip and carinated neck above a rounded bottom. The vessel is supported by a round, splayed foot. There is a fillet around the join of the base and body. The vessel is worn and pitted. The object is covered in a green patina and powdery white accretions can also be identified.
Cast bronze bridle bit for a horse. The bit consists of two flat plates at either end, in the shape of horses, and a moveable bit piece with curled ends that passes through each of the plates. A thick ring with two protruding elements, one like a nail head with an "X" shape engraved on the top and the other resembling an animal head, is also part of the bridle bit. This ring may have attached to the top of the leather piece that would have run above the horse's head. The bridle bit has been secured on a modern black stand.
Cast bronze Ibis head with a wooden base. This figure only consists of the bird's long, curved neck and head. Deep lines delineate the beak and the eye, as well as the lower lid of the eye. There is a groove running from the crown of the bird's head to the tip of the beak. The surface of the sculpture is pitted and covered in green bronze accretion.
A cast metal plaque depicting four male figures. The figures stand shoulder to shoulder, each with a helmet-shaped headdress and ringed neck decoration extending down to cross the chest over the ribs. Each figure has a uniquely patterned skirt decorated with, from left to right, dots, dots and zigzags, horizontal bands with dots, and a leaf pattern. The faces of the figures have prominent eyes and mouths, and wide noses. Shoulders are prominent and rounded, arms slightly bent and hanging down at sides, with hands flat on thighs. Shins and ankles extend from the bottom of the skirts and end in flat, forward-protruding feet. The rear of the plaque is concave behind each figure, and a metal ring for hanging is attached at top centre.
Cast bronze figure of the deity Hor-Sma-Tawy or Horus-Uniter-of-the-Two-Lands. The figure is wearing a tall, flat, three-pronged headdress. The bottom portion of the headdress includes a striped head cap with a gold-coloured head band, a thick side braid, a braid down the figure's back, and a side panel that extends down over the left shoulder. The figure is standing with its left foot forward. Its left arm is hanging straight while its right arm is bent at the elbow with its index finger touching the mouth indicating it is the child Horus.
Open and shallow bronze vessel. The bowl of the vessel contains three raised concentric circles. The lip of the vessel is folded with a subtle carination. The bottom of the vessel has a short ring foot with five raised concentric circles. It appears as though the bronze was hammered.
Small cast bronze horse with a thick, long tail and hollow body. The object has a circular opening in the centre of its back. Each pair of legs are joined at the ankles. It is difficult to distinguish the individual legs, and the object contains few details in general.
Bronze hand mirror with bevelled lip. Etched decoration on one face depicts a male figure and three female figures within an encircling band of laurel leaves. The reverse surface is plain. Mirror has several old breaks and repairs.
A straight pin with a Peruvian coin finial. The shaft on the pin is gold-coloured with a protrusion on one side and a hole in the centre of it at the shaft neck. The coin finial is bronze. One side of the coin depicts Peru's coat of arms: a shield with a wreath, a llama, a tree, and a cornucopia of fruit. The reverse side of the coin has been obscured by a blot of silver-coloured solder, where the coin is attached to the shaft. Some words can still be made out on the reverse: "serva Del Peru - 1964 - EL BANCO CENTR...PAGAR...RTADOR, UN SOL DE ORO".
