Without context I think it's just guessing unless there are other examples with a bit of provenance somewhere.
The other thing is theres no way to figure the out the size of the objects... could be thumbnail or tennis ball size...
Edit just took a look and size is about Thumbnail and dished, jinglers do seem a possibility...

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
