Vintage Gold-Toned Tooled Metal Trinket Box with Decorative Ring

This item is a small, rectangular vintage trinket or pill box crafted from a gold-toned metal, likely brass or gold-plated alloy. The box features an ornate, all-over embossed floral or scrollwork pattern known as 'tooling,' which provides a rich texture and aesthetic characteristic of mid-20th-century vanity accessories (circa 1940s-1960s). It is constructed with a functional hinge and a small thumb-tab clasp at the top. The interior appears to be lined with a smooth material, possibly glass or a light-colored enamel. Resting on the box is a decorative ring, which features a wide band—possibly enameled in a teal or green hue—and a central raised setting. The ring's setting appears to hold a large, light-colored cabochon stone or crystal, though the low image resolution obscures the specific mineral type. Regarding condition, the metal shows a visible patina and darkening in the recessed areas of the engraving, which is typical for its age. There are no obvious structural deformations visible from this angle, though the surface shows mild oxidation. The quality of the metalwork suggests a mass-produced decorative giftware item, popularized by brands like Stratton or similar mid-century boutique manufacturers.
