    I've got this metal trinket box. Is it Japanese or Chinese (I came across many of these on the internet and they're either Japanese or Chinese; I can't tell those apart;there's not much difference.) and when could it have been made?
    Thanks for help :)

    Kacper, I edited them a bit, they were quite dark:

    Could you show the sides please, and the bottom?

    I like it. Nice work on the dragons.
    It looks Chinese, not antique, but made to look old.
