Two of the trays have lace sandwiched between glass. The candy dishes have glass inserts with three compartments and sometimes I see these listed as powder jars and jewel caskets. The perfume bottles were made by Heisey (Crystolite) and rest inside French style metal mountings. One of them has a handpainted miniature painting on ivory.
