I know nothing about it, other than it's trunk shaped, made of wood, with a metal interior.

eh, I'm 200 miles from it now, but the holes do go all the way through the top, like you could stick a rod through to rotate something inside the cylinders. I don't recall the species, though doesn't it look like oak. Could be teak. I'm not good with wood identification. Someone get that book in here, STAT.

To me, it looks like the sort of thing you'd keep and serve ice cream from, to me.

I know what this is. It's an espresso machine.
No, no wait. It's a snow cone maker. That's what it is.
A water heater?

If not ice cream I am going to guess a place for the milkman to put his milk delivery.
