While searching the internet for a different deck box I was actually directed to a thread on these forums about the same deck box circa 2009 and nobody knew anything about it then either.
Looking for that thread, I found this: someone who has one calls it a Magic Stone Deck Box.
That led me to this thread, which contained a link to this thread, and while no one gave an exact identification, it was noted that they were released around 1998 or 1999.
Yeah, that's the thread I was referring to before.
It also mentions portal prerelease/release. Portal was released in 1997, perhaps the person saying 1998-1999 just got the date wrong by a year and it was released as some type of tie-in with Portal.

Thanks all for looking at my thread but still we can't find a real answer of the question: for what porpuse was it made and are there more boxes in different collours...
As i said before my box i just the same as in the found threads but only in a green version (its not painted green because a little piece broke of and inside is also green).
It can't be a portal release item, the date in the box is 1995.
Should i try to e mail wizards of the coast or something to get an answer?

OK, that's a really important clue. That's the year that gave us Fourth Edition and Homelands. These are the early days of Magic... the P9 and the original duals are gone, yes, but Magic is just beginning to find out if it can survive without them.
Coming up with weird ideas to make everyone happy since 2008!     I have now started a blog as an appropriate place to put my crazy ideas.

emailing (or tweeting) wizards would be cool. Tha was suggested in the previous threads but it doesn't look like anyone actually did. They might do an arcana on it, which would be cool.
