Inherited from a relative. Always liked it. Don't know what it is. Has CHINA stamped on the bottom. It's a brass like metal. Ruby like jem on back left has an exposed bottom on the inside of the box. Other jems/stones are inlaid. It's 3 inches wide 2 deep and 1 high.
How big is this box? Please add photos of the inside and bottom.
