A very interesting piece. I was thinking of Spain with the typical Miquelet lock. The decoration reminds me of the Spanish colonies, such as native inhabitants from the Americas.
Similar figures can be seen on Tobacco jars from this period and before. The rocaille decoration relates to the fashion of the mid to late 18th century.

Great find!
