This is a Vintage English Metal Water Color Paint Box.
The listing is for the box with used pastels.

Review the photos and make your own assessment of the pastels as well.

These items are an eclectic mix including gold and sterling jewelry, and many unique, and in some cases, one of a kind items, in wood, brass, and iron, and other materials as well.
Among the items referenced are a number of other antique and vintage paint boxes, some in metal, some in wood, and other related painting items, including a lot of artist's brushes sold as a single lot. The paints include five metal paint boxes. There are also a wide variety of boxes and Mauchline ware items.
This paint box appears to be one of the two oldest among the group of metal paint boxes referenced above. This box is unpainted and undecorated, supporting the likelihood of this being an older set, and likely formally antique.
