What is the purpose of this single box found in Rome B&B room?
I found this box in the room of the B&B in Rome:
I am wondering what is its purpose as it is the first time I have found something like this in a room. There is only one of these even if the room is double.
Its shape and color remind me of a couple of restaurants that used something similar (but significantly smaller) for tipping.
Question: What is the purpose of this single box found in Rome B&B room?
I got another picture and the projected size is about 15 x 11cm. Also, the interior suggests something related to a fancy box used as a gift.

The question edit shows there is something in the box after all:
soft fabric
a mirror
The box lid opens in an unusual direction, presumably because of the mirror, which is in "portrait" orientation.
My guess is this is a jewellery box provided by the hotel so that jewellery may be removed and kept out of harm's way, and/or from getting lost.
It is much simpler than such boxes usually are, because it only needs to contain jewellery actually being worn, not a whole collection.
And there is only one of them, because (typically) only one person will have significant jewellery to remove at night.
