Wine tester from Anjou

A priori, I thought it was a hand candle holder, and that it was hung on the wall by the hole. But, but... It has no central spade where to anchor the candle... Then this object could also be a bleeding bowl, which also had an ear. In fact, it is an ancient great taste wine Angevin. It is hallmarked on its perimeter. It can become an ashtray or anything else depending on your imagination. I cleaned it up. Tin. Length 15, 5cm. Width 12, 5cm. Depth 3cm. Weight 320 grams.
