I didn't know where to post this, but I thought the Black Powder folks would appreciate it the most. 
This neat little Hawksley oiler was in a batch of stuff I bought last week. The jar is turned from nickel silver and the lid and dipper are made of carbon steel. I'm guessing it's from the 1900-1910 era. (?)
Note the leather gaskets and the split in the dipper to allow it to hold more oil:
