      Hi, peacockt. :-)

      Cool item. It sent me down a bit of a rabbit hole.

      So, the trademark is registered in Russia, Great Britain, France (and presumably in the USA), and the item has two patents, dated Mar 27 06 and Oct 27 08.

      Try as I might, (and I downloaded all of your pictures of the item so that I could enhance them) I couldn't quite make out all of the name of the company that made the item.

      What I could make out:

      SCH?ER?S SONS? INC. NY

      (Where the question marks represent characters that I either couldn't read or were hidden from view).

      I googled patent Mar 27, 1906, and tripped on this:

      https://patents.google.com/patent/US816503A/en

      Which led me to this:

      *snip*

      Antique Schrader and Son Portland Hot Water Bottle Pat. Mar. 27 1906, and Oct. 27, 1908

      *snip*

      https://www.etsy.com/listing/601624988/antique-schrader-and-son-portland-hot

      And this:

      https://www.etsy.com/listing/223150954/antique-metal-cello-hot-water-bottle

      And this:

      https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/unusual-pre-1915-palco-wwi-canteen-426787993

      Which eventually led me to this CW S&T item by the same maker (but with different patents):

      https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/118260-a-schraders-son-pat-sept-29-1893-in

      I suspect that when you wrote "rubber cell," you meant "rubber seal."

      It looks like what you have is a vintage stopper for a canteen or hot water bottle.

      About A. Schrader:

      I think this calls for a little mood music:
