Antique Lacquered Chinese Wood Teapot Container/Caddy with 2 Brass Bands.

Another interesting find of mine when I lived in Taiwan and it has been in my home for more than 40 years. Most of the items I have listed were bought when antique stores sold many items without any qualifying tags or date. It is dark wood tone, possibly lacquered, two brass bands with a reddish interior. The wooden could be Chinese Elm. Totally original, no renovations/improvements to this item. In very good condition for its age with no cracks or chips. A fun feature is the handle on the lid which one has to lift up, slide left to open the lid and it also locks it in place. The photos show a better story than words. Questions.... please ask.
