White jade, with gold pin. They look hand carved and are about 2 inches. Not sure what they would be used for.
Inherited from a well travelled friend.

Please wil you send a photo like the last than i and all the c.w. better seen.
But the last photo is the best i love it.
How lovely they are (despite the... poor pics, better to photography on a black background, in natural light, without flash!)
The jade pieces were worn as adornments, sewed on clothes during Qing dynasty and till before the revolution.
After, they were either exported to be mounted by western jewellers, as yours are or mounted in China for export pieces (usually silver or silver gilt filigree mounts).
