Those are both glass cases for each pair of glasses. The smaller ones are foldable. Here is a different perspective of those items:

Ahah! Now I understand. Pretty clever little pair of glasses there. Thanks.

This display came to the Atlanta History Center a few years ago, along with his top hat.

Yes I meant the "buttons". One of the metal cases could really be some kind of lighter. My grandpa had somthing similar (and where is that thing gone ...????)
And what might that golden pyramidonal thing be? A pendant? A surprise for Mary to be given to her after the theater? But no, it seems more like some kind of small flask ...
Very interesting, thank you!

It's a watch fob.

I got to see these in Omaha during a traveling exhibit a few years ago. Very neat to see so far from where they are normally housed. Even got to see Mary's dress and other artifacts. Most of the documents were facsimiles though.
