Brass vase?

[C4RL]

Thanks Richard.
The opening at the top is 5”/125mm wide. The widest part 9-1\2” / 24cm.
Despite searching the web I haven’t managed to find anything similar but realise I’m just missing a search word/term.
I also realise these are a little out of the scope of this forum but thought I give it a try.

Possible artillery shell trench arts that are missing the base plugs?

They could be spittoons where something is missing. These spittoons are common in areas where betel chewing was common.
See an example from a recent German auction.
This would mean that you have presented them upside down.

Spittoons almost always have a trumpet like opening, whereas the opening on these (on the larger side) is the exact opposite.

........and they look Moro made, possibly Maranao or Maguindanao? They worked with brass and bronze a lot.
