A mixed lot of decorative and functional items. Included is a militaria display featuring a wooden frame with a glass front, housing five inert metal signal cartridges. The reverse of the frame retains a partial and distressed printed paper label in German text, identifying the contents as Signal-Patronen (signal cartridges) with reference to green illumination and a Berlin manufacturer. The frame is supported by an adjustable brass-toned metal stand. Also present is a world time desk accessory with a turned wood base and a brass-finished face displaying a 24-hour dial and international city names surrounding a central globe. The collection further comprises a small black carved animal figurine in the form of an elephant and a group of metal napkin rings, some featuring stamped decorative motifs.
