"Weird gold sticks, 1.25 inches long, potentially used for electronics in the 70s?"
A: "I think they’re the leads from Caddock MG series resistors, presumably the ends that get clipped off after soldering the resistor on. For reference, this is what a circuit board looks like before you trim down the extraneous leads. That would make them gold plated nickel with a copper core, which definitely sounds like something a jewelry maker might want to bring home from her day job in electronics."

#15 is a souvenir Zulu battle regalia. The spear is an assegai, the wooden stick a knobkierie and the shield a Nguni shield. Though it is mostly ceremonial these days. It was mostly used during the time of Shaka Zulu.

Hannah, A shaving scuttle is a double walled, ceramic bowl used to keep soap lather warm and ready for multiple passes. It is used by filling the bottom bowl with hot water and building a thick soap/cream lather in the upper bowl.
