Pottery Piece

Question:
This "jug" is about 8 inches tall and about 8 i/2 inches across. It has 2 holes in one end and the inside of that end is glazed and goes down about half way. The other end is has one hole and is unglazed inside. The inside of the unglazed end has several numbers inside, but no names or manufacturer, etc. What is it?

Answer: You have a very interesting piece. We do not recognize this piece. The discripton makes me think of the filter tops of some of the older coffee or tea pots, but you would think that the whole piece would need to be glazed. So our answer is We don’t know.
