Plain brass bracelet, or possibly a child's armlet, with simple parallel grooves the only surface decoration. The current 'twisted' shape of the bracelet suggests that it may have been forcibly removed from the wearer.

Bronze wall plaque with two almost identical full length court officials. The detailed rendering of the costume and regalia suggests the figures are directly associated with the royal court. The floral engravings on the main body of the plaque are known as olokun designs and similar designs also appear on other objects and architecture associated with the royal court.
