Metal can with spout and copper bottom

By alexsa, 19 December, 2013
Description

Metal can with spout and a metal spout cover. Its is all tin except for the bottom which is copper.

I'm not sure what it was used for. There is only one opening in the top. No filler opening.

I thought it was a smoker for beekeeping but no bellows
