Can You Identify This Object?
Unknown Christmas present.
My sister gave me this for Christmas. She doesn't know what it is.
She bought it at an antique store and she knows that I like old time stuff.
It is carved, or machined out of one piece of wood. It is 6 1/2 inches high.
Has a leather wrapping around the bottom half of it with a woven leather handle.
Also has a leather lid that fits tightly.
