    These are typical of mid-20th century snuff bottles.
    The cranes are transfer printed, the Shou character and bats could be hand painted.
    The stopper of the Shou bottle is probably serpentine, in rare cases they are jade.
    The spoons are probably plastic. The broken spoon can be replaced, although current replacement spoons are generally carved bone. So an upgrade.;)
