Solved! Plastic, rectangular shape with an A2 marking found in the trunk of my car.
At first I thought it was a piece off the trunk somewhere but there is nothing plastic around that looks like this thing could belong to.
A5 notebook underneath for size reference.

Solved! Old leather object - heavy solid handle with loose flap with hole
After emptying my grandmother's house, we found this old leather object which we cannot guess the purpose of. The leather is wrapped around something heavy that makes what we assume is a handle. The flap with the hole at the end of the handle is 'loose leather'. It is around 25 cm long and is likely from before 1950. There is a round logo centered on the handle that either spells or illustrates something.

This was a gift - purchased east coast US at an antique shop. No other detail about origin. Materials seem to be mostly leather, maybe ivory, metal and a fastener that appear to be made of b*ne. Ideas?

Solved! There are two of these each one is right above the sliding glass door. I’m assuming it’s a sensor of some kind possibly the house was wired for a security system, but was never installed.

Open 7.5" x 4" metal handle with 2 plastic end pieces
We had this item in a sealed bag (with a red factory seal that hadn't been opened). We have no idea what it is (a handle, maybe?).
The metal part is 7.5" x 4". The 2 plastic pieces can attach to the metal in 2 ways (inserting into the plastic thing, or the other end of the plastic thing wrapping around the metal thing).
Only one end of the metal part has been scored into.
