Other metalware items consist of a pewter hip flask with a screw-top, a small pewter tankard, and a set of circular metal coasters held in a wire rack. Ceramics include a blue and white transfer-printed vase with a scalloped tulip-shaped rim and a matching small cream jug with a scroll handle.

The dish features a printed British Royal Coat of Arms with the mottos HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE and DIEU ET MON DROIT. A small faceted clear glass scent bottle with a stopper and a black-painted metal silhouette depicting a band of five cats playing musical instruments complete the lot.

The weather station dials are printed with THERMOMETER and HYGROMETER.
