    This is a full Indian War painting set with 4 separate original wooden utensils. Old, likely around 1849.

      So Native Americans had little wooden boxes for war paint? And special applicators?

      I have some ocean front property in Kansas for sale if you might be interested. There were Indians there to.

      Possibly Indian, as in India, but there is definitely not any connection with Native American Indian, or war paint.

      Clear, non-fuzzy, photos would help identify where exactly it came from, but Native American Indian is ruled out, since no tribe ever made or used anything remotely like this.
