The ceramic items include Southwestern style pottery featuring a double-spouted wedding vase with geometric motifs, a flat-sided vase depicting a pueblo scene, a small sand painting plaque, and a Grand Canyon themed plate. Also included is a group of three glass paperweights: one with a blue swirl and white bird motifs, one featuring a pink floral inclusion within blue glass, and a third with a thistle design.

The lot further contains two cast metal figures of armoured warriors, a small bronze-tone statue of the Manneken Pis, a Canada goose figurine on a rocky base, two carved wooden figures consisting of a standing warrior and a stylised head, and two pieces of pyrite. A unique commemorative item features a mechanical motor assembly mounted on a wooden base.
