The assortment contains four hedgehog-shaped candle holders with a bronzed finish and dark wax remnants, a copper watering can of tapering cylindrical form, and a white metal tankard with a simple looped handle.

The base of the crescent moon plaque bears impressed marks which are too worn to be legible.
