Is the bottom gate marked? Not sure if a maker ID is certain, but maybe a timeframe can be narrowed down from how the writing on the bottom looks.
 
Here's a picture of the bottom, it looks like it has a gate mark and it was ground down so the pot would sit flat.

Interesting piece, and it looks like you found it in pretty good condition. I suspected the gate mark would be there, and think the style of the lettering puts it late 19th/very early 20th century. The lid looks like it's not cast, right?
