A noun needed for small objects (of value):

[Tom]

Hi

Upon opening my dictionary a bit too frequently, I got to know that there are many words that mean "small pretty objects". I became interested and started making my list of the words that meant "small objects of value etc". Two days ago when I needed the list for a small crossword, I could find it nowhere. :oops:

Could you please tell me a few words that mean "small objects of value etc". ?

Well, small pretty objects are not the same as small objects of value-- as a matter of fact, I can think of no words that mean the latter. There are a number that mean small objects usually with little value: knickknack, bric-a-brac, bibelot, trinket. Objets d'art and curios can be of any size.
