It is not a Gucci purse, but what about the Rolex and the oval thinghy being held up ? Anyone knows ?

With a thing like this some context is helpful. What is this and where from? I feel sure some archaeologists will have come up with some ideas. But we have no chance of looking that up unless we know what pictures these are.

In the absence of such information I would assume the "rolex" is some kind of decorative bangle. No idea about the oval object. Possibly a representation of some fruit or seed?
