    It's only about 2" high with the lid on.
    It's a bubble blue glass that looks hand painted.
    I can't find a thing on it or what it's supposed to go on.
    Looking at the bottom part, it looks like it's supposed to fit onto something.

    Sometimes you just have to scroll past the things that turn up in an image search that are not relevant to what you are looking for, LOL.

    Maybe look for Indian face beads.

    Did it have the metal on it that tarnishes?
    I got this one polished up and looking way better than it did!

    The metal on the inside of the lid looks like copper where there is corrosion of the silvery layer.

    Yeah it does.
    It's pretty corroded and I'm working on cleaning it.

    Sorry....
    I didn't know what you meant by Ziggy faces. Now that I've enlarged your picture I see it! And I've learned something new in your thread too, thanks to @Houseful . This is the first I've ever heard of Indian face beads.
    I'm kind of dense sometimes, lol. I thought you were talking about these faces that turned up in the image search:

    I had some face beads that were identified by the jewelry ladies here, before that happened I had no clue.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    It's a cute little box. I hope you get it all cleaned up!
