Unusual old clay vessel

My mother picked this up to use as a watering can. I’m thinking maybe an olive oil jug? It’s marked Barcelona and above that a name - which appears to be Gili y Sata or something to that effect. Anyone know for sure what this thing is?

It’s pottery - with some sort of basic glaze. I presume it was a use once and throwaway thing. Very thin bodied.

Teapot or for boiling water? Interesting for sure. Olive oil is a good guess.
