I love faisselles, this one is a hand made, stoneware rustic cheese mold used in a farm dairy to make soft usually goat's milk cheese called also faisselle.
 
The hand made holes allowed the whey to drain easily, they are irregular as made by hand. This faisselle looks lovely with a candle inside with the light dancing on the lighter glazed interior and glowing through the holes.
 
It measures 3" by 5.5"
