The one on the left appears to be a Webley, and probably in .455 calibre. The one on the right could be a Smith & Wesson and I'd be willing to bet in .455 as well. Probably from a Smith & Wesson handejector and the Webley maybe a Mk. VI?

Edit: are you interested in parting with them? I have both models of revolver.
 
Neither my .455 S&W or .455 Colt New Service cylinders have clearance cuts for cartridge rims. (and they are still on the guns.)

However my S&W cylinder is numbered in the same place and it does have those two nibs for locatiing the extractor , while the Colt does not.
So the second one is S&W fer sure, and given the other mark, it will be .455
