I'm pretty certain this was once the lid on a chip-carved folk art box, as there is still a tiny pin in it at one corner, where it would have attached. I'm sorry not to have the whole box, but alas this piece was saved, as it's quite a pretty piece I think, and an old, with a terrific patina. I'd probably put a tiny hook on the back and hang it on the wall.
3 7/8" x 3 9/16" and in very good, presumed antique, condition.
