You can't.

Variables are saved to array like {"varname=value", "varname2=value"} meaning its a string and if the value can't be represented as a string its not going to work.

Perhaps if it did {{varname, value}, {varname2, value2}} instead that would be possible as long as you didn't convert array to string, but you still can't send objects to client.

I never use savevarstoarray() for sending item data to client because that means the amount of data sent would be a lot larger than it needs to be. I put it in a format like:
{{varname1, varname2}, {value1, value2}, {value1-2, value2-2}, {value1-3, value2-3}}
When the data gets to client new objects are created.

Here is code snippet from Inventory:

PHP Code:

public function config() {
  this.clientvars = {
    "number",
    "equipped",
    "fullname",
    "totalweight",
    "type",
    "icon",
    "value",
    "weight",
    "questitem",
    "slot",
    "id",
  };
}
function onCreated() {
  this.config();
  this.join("util_triggercontrol");
  this.join("util_catchevent2");
}
function onMudPlayerObjectCalculated(obj) {
  with (temp.obj.graal) {
    if (client.inventoryopen) {
      this.trigger("RequestItems", 0);
    }
  }
}
function onRequestItems(clienttime) {
  if (temp.clienttime < player.mud.calculatetime || player.mud.calculatetime == null) {
    temp.out = {};
    for (temp.i: player.mud.items) {
      temp.part = {};
      for (temp.e: this.clientvars) {
        temp.part.add(temp.i.(@ temp.e));
      }
      temp.out.add(temp.part);
    }
    this.clientfunction2(null, "onRecieveItems", player.mud.calculatetime, this.clientvars, temp.out, player.mud.gold);
  }
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
public function requestitems() {
  this.serverfunction2(null, "onRequestItems", staticdata.invcalculatetime);
}
public function clearitems() {
  for (temp.i = staticdata.invitems.size() - 1; temp.i > -1; temp.i --) {
    if (staticdata.invitems[temp.i].type() == 2) {
      staticdata.invitems[temp.i].destroy();
    }
  }
  staticdata.invitems = {};
}
function onRecieveItems(calculatetime, vars, items, gold) {
  this.clearitems();
  staticdata.invcalculatetime = temp.calculatetime;
  staticdata.invitemscount = temp.items.size();
  staticdata.invvars = temp.vars;
  staticdata.invgold = temp.gold;
  for (temp.i = 0; temp.i < temp.items.size(); temp.i ++) {
    temp.item = new TStaticVar("InventoryItemData" @ temp.i);
    for (temp.e = 0; temp.e < temp.vars.size(); temp.e ++) {
      temp.item.(@ temp.vars[temp.e]) = temp.items[temp.i][temp.e];
    }
    staticdata.invitems.add(temp.item);
  }
  if (client.inventoryopen) {
    this.refreshall();
  }
}
