These are replacement spokes (long wire with threads at one end) and nipples (hollow nuts) for wire wheels. They are the connectors between the hub (center) and rim/hoop (outer) of a wheel. Automotive, motorcycle, bicycle, and aviation wheel manufacturers use these parts to repair wire wheels. These parts have been manufactured since the 1800s, being that these are in plastic bags they are not the old. Most likely last 20 years, but still made today. Dayton Wire Wheels, Buchanan Spokes, Truespoke Wire Wheels all supply these parts (look online for these names), but are made to order based on your samples or measurements. You can also buy on eBay or Amazon, but the experience may vary.
