Assorted Metal Bushings, Spacers, and Hardware Drawer

The item is a drawer filled with an assortment of various mechanical components, primarily consisting of metal bushings, spacers, washers, shafts, and possibly small pipe fittings. The materials appear to be a mix of steel, brass (notably a prominent golden-hued bushing), and possibly aluminum, presenting a range of metallic finishes from dull gray to polished silver and tarnished bronze. The sizes and shapes are highly varied, indicating a collection of parts for different applications. Many components are cylindrical, with various inner and outer diameters, while others are flat rings (washers) or short tubular sections. Some have visible threads or machined surfaces, suggesting they are precision-engineered parts. The overall condition shows signs of use and storage, with some parts exhibiting surface wear, minor scratches, and localized corrosion or patina, particularly on the brass elements. There is no clear indication of manufacturing marks or signatures visible on individual pieces from this overhead perspective. The collection seems to be an accumulation of spare or salvaged parts, without a specific brand or uniform aesthetic, suggesting a utilitarian purpose. The presence of several small plastic bags within the drawer indicates an attempt to organize or protect some of the smaller components, though most are loose. The craftsmanship varies from rougher cut pieces to finely machined components. It is difficult to pinpoint a specific style period due to the diverse nature of the items, but they appear to be standard industrial or automotive parts that could span several decades, likely mid-20th century to present. This drawer represents a functional collection of hardware, suitable for repairs, fabrication, or hobbyist projects.
