Can anyone help ID this stuff? Found near Gloucester VA. The container seems to be copper with a porcelain insert on the lid. Not sure about the figurine.

The head seems to be plastic, but not sure. Also looks like it had little rhinestone eyes. Was found about 12" down.

the tinny appears to be an old cosmetic tin...rouge or something...need to see the back and some clear close ups.

the head is a trinket...someone stashed it in the used tin.

The owner of the object is looking for some possible history on the figure. Thanks for the ID on the tin too tho

Judging by the rings around the neck and the facial features, I think the figure is African. It looks to be some type of charm. You said you thought it was plastic. The green patina makes it look brass or copper.
