i have no idea what this is. it has a felt on wood base, enameled and gilt metal top, and the rolltop appears to be ivory or maybe enamel as well?

I haven't seen one of these since I was a kid. I don't know the official use but my great grandmother put jewelry in it and kept it on her bed stand. She also had a wind up alarm clock with the same roll top.
thanks fhrjr2! i am sure that this has a very specific function. i hope that someone is able to tell what that function is/was!
Snuff, Tobacco, smoking related I believe.
thank you GeodeJem. i'll keep my eyes peeled.
Roll-top ashtray. 1950s most likely.
thank you Phonoboy!
