I'd say it was made in Europe, second half of the nineteenth century, and was an early import to the Americas.
The glaze and handle shape appear more Scandinavian than German or French.
If I had to guess, Norway or Sweden, leaning toward Sweden.

I found some similar to that in a 1850's-60's Privy but unfortunately broken. I think they made them into early 1900's also. As far as I know they are Foreign or European. I don't think they have to much value. LEON.
