Description, scan 2: A dark, heavily corroded metal object shaped like a teardrop loop, with a narrower tail rising to a rounded point at the top. The loop is open in the middle and the surface is pitted and uneven. The photograph is taped to a cream sheet, and a small blue handwritten mark shows along the bottom edge.
Description, scan 3: A card mount holding two photographs. On the left, a long V-shaped white card carries a necklace of many pale and dark beads strung in a curve, with a small rectangular item near the bottom. Above it, a smaller photograph on a grey backing shows a dark, corroded loop with a twisted end, and a handwritten blue number label sits below it.
