From right to left

Box 1) "turrets" like those used by Millet those seems in teflon

Box 2) seems to be .... teflon "loops" don't know the english name, they are used in VHF - UHF as to cross shields to carry signal on the other side

Bag 3) don't able to see well

Box 4) a mix, seems to see "cross capacitors" the same use of "loops" but at the same time they are capacitors (but I'm not sure because don't see well)

Box 5) eyelets for tall boards

Yeah the bag pic didn't come out well but these are threaded bottom "component clips" that I assume are used for prototyping/quick swapping purposes. I assumed all of these had a "higher" purpose but they all work great for tube stuff as well. The only place you really see gold plating and Teflon combined nowadays is in high-end, high speed connectors (good BNC, SMA and other RF connectors).
