The item was obtained in Burma (Myanmar) sometime during WWII. I would like to know its value but mostly I want to know what it is. Many people guess incense burner but I don't think so. I think it might have been used to mix medicine or in some religious ceremony. I was told the writing that goes around the box are poems. I think the wooden box it is in was maybe made at a later date to hold it and carry it around. If the writing on the box could be interpreted that might give a clue to its purpose.
