Top of a smudge pot:

They used to be used as flares/markers at night in areas where road construction was being done. But yours is a baby smudge pot, perhaps cutting its teeth as an incense burner...

I think MiddenMonster is close on with this one. I see it is vented on top for heat and fumes. Perhaps it was an oil lamp cap. Example : http://cgi.ebay.com/ELGIN-LANTERN-O...43QQihZ018QQcategoryZ4061QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Allright then, I'm not sure what it is but it must have been made out of copper for a reason.
