grapes

[bruce]

Hello there,
Found this last month in creek bed sides were
all broken away so I fixed it to give the full
idea. It appears brick around a foot wide and
3 and half tall. The patina gave it artistic look is
why I kept and want to know what that was
used for? Looks like it was on a potters wheel
and a bowl like press stamped it. Has anyone
know about this?

Thanks,
Bruce

I'm at least willing to venture that grapes were crushed in it...
