I am looking for any help in determining what this piece was even used for. I it cylindrical in shape and flares slightly at the top and bottom. There is a mark on the bottom with a crown, ES, and de uberti, Italy, number 38. It was part of my mother-in-laws estate and no one seems to know what it would have been used for. I have searched exhaustively and have come up with no solutions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
