    Absolutely, riveted polished cut steel:)
    The first one is stunning with the velvet backing, gracious design and tiny pieces of sparkling steel!:jawdrop::)

    Agreed, cut steel which has a very intersting history.

    Thanks for the input. They came from an aunt. Assuming she salvaged them from something of her own, they probably date to the 1920s or a bit before. She liked to hang on to bits and pieces of decorative ornament.
     
    Aquitaine, kyratango and Christmasjoy like this.
