Black Ceramic Cat Sugar Salt Pepper Creamer Container Bowl Handpainted

It’s a mystery what this little kitty container is for, the head comes off and seems to have 2 shaker holes in top and a hole for a small cork in the bottom, so maybe salt or pepper? But then what do you put in the bottom half? Either way he’s adorable with his hand painted features and his red neck bow. No markings on bottom. Clean and usable.
