Not sure about the bottom item. Is it half a belt buckle perhaps?

to me, that looks like clock or watch workings, and possibly battery cover, if found same place, but that doesn't make sense with a wind up control to the side. Might be a case part of some sorts, with flower pattern. either way, looks broken.
