Persian (Farsi) term or phrase: ﺗﺷﺗﻚ
This appears in the dictionary as a "basin", but is used in the text as:

ﺗﺷﺗﻚﻫﺎﻯ ﻔﻠﺯﻯ ﻤﻮﺮﺪ ﺍﺴﺗﻔﺎﺪﻩ ﺪﺮ ﺪﺮﺐ ﺒﻨﺪﻯ ﻧﻮﺸﺎﺒﻩﻫﺎ

Does this just mean metal lids for drinks containers?

bottle cap
Explanation:
Small basin, even petri dish, is in the dictionary as you noted, but your meaning is pretty exclusively used for bottle caps (e.g. beer, Coke, etc.) that are pressed on in the bottling plant and not for other kinds of caps or lids (e.g. require peeling, cutting, twisting, etc. for removal)
