Pine Spice Tray(?) in Red Paint

Neat country carrier divided into four compartments. No idea of its intended purpose, but it wasn’t used for tools or metal bits because it isn’t sufficiently scarred. It’s been suggested to me that it   might have been used to gather new supplies of fresh spices from the herb garden. Pine, original red paint, early wire nailed construction, ca. 1880-1920. 10½” x 12”.
