According to Jonathan Horne, this jar was intended to store amber (coloured) olive oil. This very early type of oil jar is most closely related to the 'smoking man' catouches of which the earliest example is dated 1652, see Louis L. Lipski and Michael Archer, Dated English Delftware, London, 1984, p. 368, no. 1595.
