A strange cooker or fait-tout or... what can it be?
We have this odd cooker. We have not been able to figure out what it is. The top can't be opened.
EDIT : There's some liquid inside both parts, we can hear it if we shaken them. Even if we can't figure if it's water or something else as we can't see it.
Does anyone know what this is?

Answer 2
I suspect that's for cooling, not heating. Each piece would be filled with brine (but only partially, to allow for expansion), to increase the thermal mass and yet maintain a high thermal flux while cooling. The two-part design maximizes the surface area. You freeze the two pieces, put the food to be chilled in the vessel, then insert the lid.
Answer 3
I suspect it is an ice cream maker. Freeze the parts and put a solution into the gap to be displaced and maximise the surface area but it remains accessible to scrape of and reinsert a few times and voila, Ice cream/ sorbet.
