Hi - I would like to know what this is and what purpose it would have been put to. (See photos) The object is made of terracotta highly polished to give a smooth soft feel - it is some 22cm long by 15cm wide. There are two "wells" towards the top and a further one some 10 cm in diameter in the center - this well has a lid - see photo. It is highly decorated with dragons - any help would be greatly appreciated.
