[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4350354, member: 2844"]Not Tibetan in style or type of brass. No religious imagery, which you often see on Tibetan items, even if they are household items. I don't see Roman or Romanesque influence either. I wonder if it is some kind of 19th century European Historic Revival object? There is a small hole next to the rivet of the lid. Puzzling. The cutout on the lid looks like it could fit a spoon. The smaller thing on the handle(?) looks like a small lid or a candle snuffer.:confused:[/QUOTE]
