If this item is hollow it may be a pome. That was a sphere filled with hot water that stood on the Altar for the Priest to warm his hands of so he did not drop the chalice.
The name 'pome' comes from the French for apple.

It looks like an old spirit burner, It all depends on what the inside
is like or contains |

It looks to me as if the object in question has holes for the perfume
of the incense to escape....Try a Buddhist Temple .. only a suggestion. |

First, if you don't know what it is, how do you know it's a liturgical
object? |
