Any ideas ?

thanks for looking !
 

Parts of a flintlock? -take that with a grain of salt, as I'm not very knowledgable about antique guns.

Second item looks like a hilt or guard from a sword or a similar edged weapon.???

Thanks for your thoughts ! I was also thinking musket or sword, but can't seem to find something that looks the same...
I also thought about some door hardware, but again...


here is the back :
