    Hi guys, please help with this one I found in an op shop for $2.

    At the beginning, it looked like Chinese or Japanese to me and maybe over 100 years old, so I bought it. But after a closer look, it has interesting number 45 & 2. Does it mean anything special? or just a code of traceability linked to a worker? Is it English?

    The size is 85mm in diameter and 45mm high.

    Thanks! TB1.jpg TB2.jpg TB1.jpg TB2.jpg TB3.jpg TB4.jpg TB5.jpg TB6.jpg

    Looks to me like the kind of box used to hold paste ink for a chop?
