Is that vessel glass or some sort of ceramic or pottery?

does the top remove if you lift the leaver?? i am thinking footwarmer. it is an odd looking one if it is!! ceramic or glass??

Yes, the lid does come off with a rubber cork,and the top part steel. It is for very[] diffferent from any thing I have seen. I think this might be glazed ceramic, to me[] it's a bottle.

whatever it is it is very interesting. i am inclined to think it is a footwarmer ( i bet it would hold hot water) and i think the dimples helped to massage the feet as it was rolled back and forth beneath.
