Dalmatian Stone
Dalmatian Jasper (a misnomer for an Aplite with Arfvedsonite spots)
Metal Chain Belt with Square Plates
Not applicable (man-made)
Metal Alloy (Likely Pewter or Sterling Silver)
Not a natural geological specimen; composed of refined metals. If pewter, it's a tin-based alloy. If sterling silver, it's 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals (usually copper).
Synthetic Resin / Plastic Figurine
Synthetic Polymer (Copolymer of Polyethylene or Resin)
Slag Glass
Amorphous Silicate (Man-made)
Blue Goldstone
Man-made glass with crystalline copper/cobalt inclusions
Goldstone
N/A (Synthetic Glass with Copper Inclusions)

Unknown; possibly a form of quartz (chalcedony/jadeite/nephrite) or glass/resin.
Blue chalcedony (likely dyed or treated)
Microcrystalline quartz, SiO₂ (chalcedony)
Small clear crystal, possibly quartz or glass-like gemstone
Uncertain; likely quartz (SiO₂), but the image is insufficient to exclude man-made glass or cubic zirconia
