[QUOTE="George Chaney, post: 5689166, member: 19137"]I have dug around and tried to figure out what these things are. I was able to identify 1 of the items (the first photo) as a holy oil bulb tube, it is a 3 part piece. (will call this item 1) I am not quite sure what the double lidded one is with a cross on top (item 2), nor the flat pendant style one with a inner lid/cover for some purpose (item 3). The cross one measures a little over 1" across and about 2 1/2" high (item 2). The flat bit measures about 2 3/8" across, 3 3/8" high with the finial thing and about 3/8" deep (item 3). I have a silver plate egg looking thing that unscrews which I believe is religious ass well (item 4). It measures about 2 1/2" high and about 1 3/4" at its widest point. On a side note - non-religious, I also have this cast bit that looks like a trophy topper but is testing as silver, rough rough... not sure what the heck that is either.
