A different kind of 'Pot'

This ‘pot’ came from my mother after she passed a few years ago, the only thing I ever heard about it was that it belonged to my Great Aunt who was born in 1902. The pot belonged to her husband’s mother.

The size of it is 10” across the top, it’s 9” deep and 6 ½” across the bottom. It looks to have images of knights around it.
Thank you for any information you can provide me.
