    Another "this looks interesting enough to buy for 2 bucks" buy at a thrift store. After staring at it for a while and a tiny bit of googling - any chance this is Palestinian? Any other ideas? Thanks for having a look see!

    4 1/2" long - 3 1/2" wide and 3" tall with the lid on.

    It looks like it's from Turkey to me.

    Looks Persian to me. Similar to the popular Qajar pottery, but probably a bit later.

    It is Turkish from Kütahya. IMO it dates to the mid 20th c.

    Thank you everyone :) Both the Turkish and Persian suggestions make sense. I appreciate your comments very much!

    I agree that Persia would make sense, too, but I am very certain that this is Kütahya. I am not at home right now but I will post examples in a few days to compare...

    Most of the way down the page on the link Mat provided - there is a cigarette box - the form of which is very much like mine - probably safe to assume mine is a cigarette box as well.

    Here's the one from the link:
