I am working in late iron age metallurgy in Balearic Islands, and we have found smalls double axes in funerary context with similar isotopics values than copper ores from crete... But I don't know any especific paralel for these chronologies.
The copper must have come from Cyprus as Crete has none. However, the Cretans (Minoans) were travelling far and wide from before the Bronze Age and were even trading bronze artifacts made in Northern Italy (Terramare) before the dawn of the Iron Age.
I wonder if any of the numerous lavrys found at Arkalohori in Crete actually belong to the Iron Age.
Vasiliki Kassianidou from the University of Cyprus (academia.edu) may be able to give you more information on your subject.
I cannot think of any specifically Cretan examples from the Late Iron Age. However, it must be noted that the form is in common use in other parts of the Eastern Mediterranean at the time, including Greece, the Near East and even Egypt, there is a fine bronze example on display at Swansea University's Egypt centre. The problem that you may be running into is the one touched on by Michael Issigonis when he wondered whether any of the Arkalohari finds were actually of later date. The problem is one of how scholars attribute a date to an artefact. If an artefact is well known to a scholar as being common in their period of interest they will tend to attribute it to that period regardless of any other possibilities. I encountered this problem 20 years ago when working on 6th century CE spearheads, in one case I was able to make a strong case that a broken spearhead attributed to c.600 was actually a mid 17th century one probably deposited in 1643. Given this I would suggest that if you have time your best option would be to deconstruct the biases of the authors of the reports to see if they have allocated some axes to the wrong time period, this often appears as claiming that an artefact must be residual in the layer in which it is found since such objects are diagnostic of an earlier time period.
Actually, these double-axes are a late phenomena in Balearic Islands and it seems a local phenomena, because I can not find exact parallels. Finally, I guess that the problem is not with the object, but more with the lead isotopes caracterization.
Sorry Laura I didn't read your initial question properly, I assumed that these were functional artefacts, are we actually talking about models as votive offerings, if so might this be less a Mediterranean phenomenon and more a European one since such 'votive' miniatures are known from the 'Celtic', a tradition which continues into the Roman period, a second possibility if we are talking of miniatures is the use as heads for pins made from organic materials now decayed
