    Can anyone identify what this piece is, or what country it may have come from?... Also, what would it have been used for?

    I found three "spouted bowls" like this one, while on a trip to one of my local resale shops today... They caught my eye, so I picked them up, along with a medium size bowl, and a pitcher that has a deliberate hole in one side of it... All seem to be made of the same material, and look like they may have come from the same region/company... I can't find any marks on any of the items... There appear to be mold lines on the pieces, but it could just be a trick of the paint job.

    This particular item seems to be ceramic, and doesn't look like it was glazed... There is an animal motif, that looks like it might be a gazelle along the sides.

    Measurements:
    5 inches (6 1/4 inches with spout) long
    5 inches wide
    1 1/2 inches deep

    Would love any information that anyone could give me!... Thanks!
