The churn lid really looks a bit off scal and too small,, I would guess its either a replacement or the churn was made for decorative purposes rather than using !! The lid should completely fit the inside rim of the churn !! The one on the left is not a churn and was/is usually used for fermented foods,,pickles, kraut, and preserved meats !! I have a few of both items !! Have no idea why they put that wooden lid with a hole on it !! That is not something that would have been normal for that crock and it looks like it doesn`t exactly fit !! I have a 10 gallon crock that the family used for preserving sausages many years ago and a few others !!
