What type of jug might this be? The top has a little hole like something might have stuck in the top and is now missing. The main body reminds me of a hoop skirt and perhaps the missing part is the upper torso? I am wondering what this might have been used for, my pictures are of the inside, the stopper, the bottom of the jug has a very faint hand wrought letter M and the little bows look like they are done by hand. Any one have a clue what this is?

loks a bit like a cloch hat from the 20's, I am wracking my brain about what it is used for tho. Good luck. I am looking forward to seeing what its is as well.

Hasn't anyone ever seen something like this? I sure never have and have grown up going to flea mkts and antique stores. Could this have been used to store fruit inside with booze for fruitcakes? Just guessing but sure would like to know!
