button box
Concertina or similar
A button box is a small accordion, typically a concertina or similar instrument with buttons rather than piano keys: He played jigs on his button box.
The term also applies to any small container for storing buttons, or in technical contexts, a simple control panel with push buttons rather than switches or dials.
