2-3 inch diameter. Got it 10 cents at an old lady's yard sale. Just thought it was cute. It holds earrings when I go to bed.

It's an alabaster trinket box. They are pretty common, if you look on eBay. Very pretty color!
This box comes closest to yours as it has the extra gold painted detailing on the lid.

Unfortunately, mine isnt alabaster, but some form of plastic. I am sure it cant be worth much, it was just a cute find. These are closer what I have:

Look just like the alabaster, wow plastic, hadn't seen them in plastic. That bakelite one in the second link is fabulous. Yours might not be bakelite as it has seams, but you can test to confirm. Very pretty!
How would I go about testing that?
I just read up on it. Pretty sure it's plastic though.
