Cut miniature decanter? for ID

(1/2) > >>

Found these lovely things yesterday. Not quite sure what they officially are used for as they are so small but presume they are intended for alcohol.

The lid, possibly forms a cup, similar to a Caithness Whiskey decanter I have. Would these be for travelling maybe? The base rim is ground with a fair amount of wear. 

The void holds about 350 ml and they stand 155mm tall.

No idea about the maker, but I think these are pickle/ condiment jars rather than decanters.

Thanks Mosquito, I'm sure your going to be right. All that I would say in defence of them being used for liquid is that they pour really well, the sides of the rim are free from markings/scratches etc. Also the opening is quite narrow - 40mm.

Lustrousstone:
350 ml is a half bottle... and 40mm is too small for pickle extraction

Thanks Lustrousstone - Although I'm guessing pickle jars to be more commercial.
