Thank you so much for these links, Anders.
Unfortunately I haven't succeed to find information concerning dating and
details of discovering. Could you help here please?

I can find a plenty of parallels for these images (at least for the Upplands
one) from the Scytho-Sarmatian world, if necessary.
Now I send a picture of just one object from an early Scythian burial
(7-6 cent.BC - Melgunovskiy kurgan on the upper Ingulets river) which fits
to both your objects simultaneously, IMO.
