This very phallic looking one bears a reddish stain, with an indent in the rounded top which seems as if made to meet a flat head screwdriver or coin in order to twist off the top, but I really have no idea! 3 7 8" t x 1 5 8" in diameter. Top slides over bottom and comes off easily. Early 20th century I would think.
