~ Hi CW Gang ~
Bought the 2 of these pieces together at a Garage sale here for $ 3.00 for the two. This remind me of another piece I have here ( PM&M), so I grabbed them. I have been digging around and it says that the one is a Toothpick holder ?? and the other one is a Rare Salt Dish ?? but not sure if that is what they actually were. Very pretty, they are small and in such super Condition. I do not know much about it, but did find some links.....but have not read through them and this stuff is a little greek to me. Any other info truly Welcomed !!

==================
Nope, tea caddy. It's missing the lid. I have one that's white with a pink flower. I used it for a toothpick holder, that's what I originally thought it was too-oh those great minds ;) I use it now for jewelry. And mine does not have the little plate. The color of yours is really pretty!
Oh THANKS Shareurpassion !!
Shucks missing a lid. Rats, but I still love it. I looked around for some tea caddy like it but did not find any yet like this. Found some like thiis but W/legs and the top had a lid but the top edges were not scalloped as much as this one. So I will keep looking. Hey for $ 3.00 for Both -- I can still use for one for Toothpicks and the other for a tea bag or something like that.
It kinda ( kinda kinda !!! lol ) will go with this piece of mine:
