What identification are you seeking? They are snuff bottles carved from various stones in a ovoid shape.

Cheers,
Stan

The one on the left am not sure about.. The center one looks like could be a low grade ( mexican ? ) Lace agate.. The right one could be carved from strombolite.. On the other hand it also reminds me of petrified palm wood..

Sorry can't be of more help :)
