    I am thinking this is a pail rather than a pot. As in a lunch pail. I was thinking this was a chamber pot but the attachments for the handle are too high up for that. A chamber pot would slide into a piece of furniture such that one could do their business.
    I have searched various combinations of pots, pails, chamber, lunch etc and not come up with a match. The closest I came was lunch pails. Probably would have been filled with stew. There are no burn marks on the bottom so I am fairly sure it was not for cooking.
    I have discovered my cats love to drink from enamelware so it may be used as a cat water bowl.

      Thank you very much fleafinder. I can see that the pot you posted is a chamber pot.
      Good to know it is a cooking pot instead of a chamber pot.

      It sure looks like a cooking pot, I have seen bread containers like this, but without the handle on the side.
    11. fleafinder fleafinder, 8 years ago
      Ehh so sorry I thought chamber pot meant pots for cooking in the chamber room until I looked up the meaning :\ Just to ascertain further is there a hole on the lid?
    12. fortapache fortapache, 8 years ago
      Thank you very much rockbat. Going with cooking pot on this.
    13. fortapache fortapache, 8 years ago
      Thank you very much again fleafinder. There is no hole in the lid. You may have had gasps of horror from your guests had the soup been made in a chamber pot.
      The way to tell the difference is to see where the handle attaches to the pot. Chamber pot is down a bit lower and cooking pot is higher up at or above the top of the pot. I'll do a post with both.
