Maybe and maybe not. The item posted by Russel appears not to have any method of latching the top. The powder would just run out. The one you show Kubur seems to have a screw??spout?

This is from the seller's description:

"The decorative rings around the top hide the fact that the "loop" finial turns to lock or unlock it. If you look at the inside of top you will see an upper and lower flange or tab...the finial turns these to lock it."
