Ekimp:
The date of the urn in the book is c.1795. It has a bell shaped lid and more cutting around the rim. He says in the text that “…the sprig and oval engraved device is reminiscent of English work”.

Keith Mick:
Hi,
1790 - 1810 seems about right maybe. I do think it should have a lid because of the bowl thickness.
Nice find even though it's had a hard life,
Keith

neil53:
Hi, it could be a salt in which case it wouldn't have had a lid.  Neil

Keith Mick:
Hi Neil,
Couldn't rule it out as a salt but the bowl is unusually thick, at least 6mm. Seems like this may be for a different use?
Thanks,
Keith

Lustrousstone:
It's too deep and narrow for a salt. A mustard or even an egg cup is more likely IMO
