Are these from Insulator? ... See MoreSee Less

And another response from a member: The lid and bottom could have been made at the Insulator then shipped to their client who would have assembled and provided any painting and hinges that you see on the final product. As I recall, the Insulator only made parts out of plastic compounds but not not do any assembly.
From one of our members: Have never seen such items related to the Insulator.. Most everything the Insulator produced has their triangle mark on base, and mostly with AICO within the triangle.. The Insulator stored most all of their items produced in a warehouse located at the end of N. Front St., directly across from the plant. As kids we had full access to the building, as it was never locked. Played in there often and knew most everything they made. Do not remember seeing any ring boxes. But who knows, there’s always a possibility. Unfortunately, there is no one left to verify….
I am not sure I have not seen any like these, look like jewelry boxes?
