Now I’m intrigued. It is the waiter’s carafe, isn’t it? But if I’m right, what’s wild about it? So I must be wrong?

It’s a spittoon.

People used to chew tobacco and then occasionally spit into these.

So this would be filled with a brown soup of saliva with soaked tobacco remains distributed in it.
