Those plastic lights with the colored plastic beads were planters turned into lights. I remember going camping during the 80's and there would be people decorating the outside patio of their motor homes with strings of them. You can see that the part on the underside is the planter tray. I think the pewter (I was thinking more like aluminum or something else.) candle holders are newer. Looks like that teak box with the tambour lid could have been for computer disks, something for like zip drives.

Roughly 8 inches high. And hand made). Now I don't collect brass items. But it was SO beautiful ! Thinking "who'd want to receive this as a gift" ? A tiny voice in my head was screaming "I would" !!! Ignoring that, I left it on the shelf.... I should have remembered ; Some day you'll find a match... LAURA USUALLY DOES ! 😭
