    I picked this up recently. Not sure what it is. Is this a religious holy water sprinkler? Or a talcum powder shaker? Im pretty clueless on it. I also can’t read the marking on the bottom. Anyone have ideas? I would greatly appreciate it- please throw them my way.
    THANKS

      Forget the earlier suggestion...haha...the cross and shells are a religious symbol so you are probably right it may be for holy water or maybe for incense or oils??
